Magnetohydrodynamic stability of stochastically driven accretion flows

Sujit Kumar Nath

We investigate the evolution of magnetohydrodynamic perturbations in presence of stochastic noise in rotating shear flows. The particular emphasis is the flows whose angular veloci…

Study of motion around a static black hole in Einstein and Lovelock gravity

Mukul Bhattacharya, Naresh Dadhich, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

We study motion around a static Einstein and pure Lovelock black hole in higher dimensions. It is known that in higher dimensions, bound orbits exist only for pure Lovelock black h…

GRMHD formulation of highly super-Chandrasekhar magnetized white dwarfs: stable configurations of non-spherical white dwarfs

Upasana Das, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

The topic of magnetized super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs is in the limelight, particularly in the last few years, since our proposal of their existence. By full-scale general relat…

Modified Einstein's gravity as a possible missing link between sub- and super-Chandrasekhar type Ia supernovae

Upasana Das, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

We explore the effect of modification to Einstein's gravity in white dwarfs for the first time in the literature, to the best of our knowledge. This leads to significantly sub- and…

Comment on "Strong constraints on magnetized white dwarfs surpassing the Chandrasekhar mass limit"

Upasana Das, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

We show that the upper bound for the central magnetic field of a super-Chandrasekhar white dwarf calculated by Nityananda and Konar [Phys. Rev. D 89, 103017 (2014)] is completely e…

Maximum mass of stable magnetized highly super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs: stable solutions with varying magnetic fields

Upasana Das, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

We address the issue of stability of recently proposed significantly super-Chandrasekhar white dwarfs. We present stable solutions of magnetostatic equilibrium models for super-Cha…

Revised density of magnetized nuclear matter at the neutron drip line

M. V. Vishal, Banibrata Mukhopadhyay

We study the onset of neutron drip in high density matter in the presence of magnetic field. It has been found that for systems having only protons and electrons, in the presence o…
