MHD Space Sailing
T. Kisiel, M. Soida
The rocket technology dates back as far as medieval China. Used initially for entertainment and religious practices over time rockets evolved into weapons and finally into means of…
The magnetic fields of large Virgo Cluster spirals
M. Wezgowiec, M. Urbanik, B. Vollmer +4
Because of its proximity the Virgo Cluster is an excellent target for studying interactions of galaxies with the cluster environment. Both the high-velocity tidal interactions and…
Magnetic fields and ionized gas in nearby late type galaxies
K. T. Chyzy, D. J. Bomans, M. Krause +3
In order to analyze the importance of the star formation rate in generating and amplifying magnetic fields in the interstellar medium we obtained deep total power and polarization…
NGC 4654: polarized radio continuum emission as a diagnostic tool for a galaxy--cluster interaction
M. Soida, K. Otmianowska-Mazur, K. T. Chyży +1
A recent comparison between deep VLA HI observations and dynamical models of the Virgo cluster spiral galaxy NGC 4654 has shown that only a model involving a combination of a tidal…
MHD Turbulence: Properties of Alfven, Slow and Fast Modes
A. Lazarian, A. Beresnyak
We summarise basic properties of MHD turbulence. First, MHD turbulence is not so messy as it is believed. In fact, the notion of strong non-linear coupling of compressible and inco…
Magnetic fields in the absence of spiral density waves - NGC 4414
M. Soida, R. Beck, M. Urbanik +1
We present three-frequency VLA observations of the flocculent spiral galaxy NGC 4414 made in order to study the magnetic field structure in absence of strong density wave flows. NG…
Unusual magnetic fields in the interacting spiral NGC 3627
M. Soida, M. Urbanik, R. Beck +2
By observing the interacting galaxy NGC 3627 in radio polarization we try to answer the question to which degree the magnetic field follows the galactic gas flows. We obtained tota…
Magnetic fields and strong density waves in the interacting galaxy NGC 3627
M. Soida, M. Urbanik, R. Beck +1
We present 10.55 GHz observations of strong density-wave spiral NGC 3627. Total power and polarization maps with a resolution of 1.13', sensitive to a weak extended emmision were o…
