Grain Alignment and CMB Polarization Studies
A. Lazarian
Polarized microwave emission from dust is an important foreground that may contaminate polarized CMB studies unless carefully accounted for. Modeling of polarization from dust requ…
Diffusion Processes in Turbulent Magnetic Fields
Alex Lazarian
We study of the effect of turbulence on diffusion processes within magnetized medium. While we exemplify our treatment with heat transfer processes, our results are quite general a…
Compressible Turbulence in Galaxy Clusters: Physics and Stochastic Particle Re-acceleration
G. Brunetti, A. Lazarian
We attempt to explain the non-thermal emission arising from galaxy clusters as a result of the re-acceleration of electrons by compressible turbulence induced by cluster mergers. I…
Density Distribution of the Warm Ionized Medium
Alex S. Hill, Ronald J. Reynolds, Robert A. Benjamin +1
Observations of Halpha emission measures and pulsar dispersion measures at high Galactic latitude (|b| > 10 deg) provide information about the density and distribution of the diffu…
Polarization from aligned atoms as a diagnostics of circumstellar, AGN and interstellar magnetic fields: II. Atoms with Hyperfine Structure
Huirong Yan, A. Lazarian
We show that atomic alignment presents a reliable way to study topology of astrophysical magnetic fields. The effect of atomic alignment arises from modulation of the relative popu…
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…
