The Velocity Statistics of Turbulent Clouds in the Presence of Gravity, Magnetic fields, Radiation, and Outflow Feedback
Yue Hu, Christoph Federrath, Siyao Xu +1
The interaction of turbulence, magnetic fields, self-gravity, and stellar feedback within molecular clouds is crucial for understanding star formation. We study the effects of self…
Cosmic ray streaming in the turbulent interstellar medium
Siyao Xu, Alex Lazarian
We study the streaming instability of GeVGeV cosmic rays (CRs) and its damping in the turbulent interstellar medium (ISM). We find that the damping of streaming instability…
Damping of Alfvén waves in MHD turbulence and implications for cosmic ray streaming instability and galactic winds
Alex Lazarian, Siyao Xu
Alfvénic component of MHD turbulence damps Alfvénic waves. The consequences of this effect are important for many processes, from cosmic ray (CR) propagation to launching outflows…
Diffusion of cosmic rays in MHD turbulence
Siyao Xu
We review some recent findings on diffusion of cosmic rays (CRs) in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence obtained by adopting the numerically-tested model of MHD turbulence, includ…
Small-scale turbulent dynamo in astrophysical environments: nonlinear dynamo and dynamo in a partially ionized plasma
Siyao Xu, Alex Lazarian
Small-scale turbulent dynamo is responsible for the amplification of magnetic fields on scales smaller than the driving scale of turbulence in diverse astrophysical media. Most ear…
Anisotropic Turbulence in Position-Position-Velocity Space: Probing Three-Dimensional Magnetic Fields
Yue Hu, A. Lazarian, Siyao Xu
Direct measurements of three-dimensional magnetic fields in the interstellar medium (ISM) are not achievable. However, the anisotropic nature of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulenc…
