Polarization of FIR emission from T Tauri Disks

Jungyeon Cho, A. Lazarian

Recent observation of 850 micron sub-mm polarization from T Tauri disks opens up the possibility of studying magnetic field structure within protostellar disks. The degree of polar…

Studying ISM magnetic fields and turbulent regimes from polarimetric maps

D. Falceta-Goncalves, A. Lazarian, G. Kowal

Polarimeric maps have been used on the characterization of the magnetic field in molecular clouds. However, it is difficult to determine the 3-dimensional properties of these regio…

Numerical Studies of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Reconnection

G. Kowal, A. Lazarian, E. T. Vishniac +1

We study the effects of turbulence on magnetic reconnection using three-dimensional numerical simulations. This is the first attempt to test a model of fast magnetic reconnection p…

Comparison of spectral slopes of magnetohydrodynamic and hydrodynamic turbulence and measurements of alignment effects

Andrey Beresnyak, Alex Lazarian

We performed a series of high-resolution (up to 1024^3) direct numerical simulations of hydro and MHD strong turbulence. We found that for simulations with normal viscosity the slo…

Properties and selected implications of magnetic turbulence for interstellar medium, Local Bubble and solar wind

A. Lazarian, A. Beresnyak, H. Yan +2

Astrophysical fluids, including interstellar and interplanetary medium, are magnetized and turbulent. Their appearance, evolution, and overall properties are determined by the magn…

Turbulence Spectra from Doppler-broadened Spectral Lines: Tests of the Velocity Channel Analysis and Velocity Coordinate Spectrum Techniques

A. Chrupnov, A. Lazarian

Turbulent motions induce Doppler shifts of observable emission and absorption lines motivating studies of turbulence using precision spectroscopy. We provide the numerical testing…
