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…
Velocity centroids as tracers of the turbulent velocity statistics
A. Esquivel, A. Lazarian
We use the results of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to emulate spectroscopic observations and use maps of centroids to study their statistics. In order to assess under whic…
Polarized Foreground Emission from Dust: Grain Alignment and MHD Turbulence
A. Lazarian, Jungyeon Cho
Aligned grains present a foreground for cosmic microwave emission studies. We review basic physical processes involved in grain alignment and discuss the niches for different align…
Problems and Progress in Astrophysical Dynamos
E. T. Vishniac, A. Lazarian, J. Cho
Astrophysical objects with negligible resistivity are often threaded by large scale magnetic fields. The generation of these fields is somewhat mysterious, since a magnetic field i…
Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray Acceleration by Magnetic Reconnection in Newborn Pulsars
E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, A. Lazarian
We here investigate the possibility that the ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) events observed above the GZK limit are mostly protons accelerated in econnection sites just above…
Microwave Emission from Galactic Dust Grains
B. T. Draine, A. Lazarian
Observations of the cosmic microwave background have revealed a component of 10-60 GHz emission from the Galaxy which correlates with 100-140um emission from interstellar dust but…
