Density Statistics of Compressible MHD Turbulence
A. Lazarian, G. Kowal, A. Beresnyak
Density is the turbulence statistics that is most readily available from observations. Different regimes of turbulence correspond to different density spectra. For instance, the vi…
Cosmic ray transport in MHD turbulence
Huirong Yan, A. Lazarian
Numerical simulations shed light onto earlier not trackable problem of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. They allowed to test the predictions of different models and choose the…
The Efficiency of Grain Alignment in Dense Interstellar Clouds: A Reassessment of Constraints from Near Infrared Polarization
D. C. B. Whittet, J. H. Hough, A. Lazarian +1
A detailed study of interstellar polarization efficiency toward molecular clouds is used to attempt discrimination between grain alignment mechanisms in dense regions of the ISM. B…
Radiative torques: Analytical Model and Basic Properties
Alex Lazarian, Thiem Hoang
We attempt to get a physical insight into grain alignment processes by studying basic properties of radiative torques (RATs). For this purpose we consider a simple toy model of a h…
Turbulence Statistics from Spectral Line Observations
A. Lazarian
Turbulence is a crucial component of dynamics of astrophysical fluids dynamics, including those of ISM, clusters of galaxies and circumstellar regions. Doppler shifted spectral lin…
Cosmic ray transport in MHD turbulence
Huirong Yan, A. Lazarian
Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions in the picture of cosmic ray transport. In this paper we use recently obtained scaling l…
