Nonlinear Resistivity for Magnetohydrodynamical Models
Manasvi Lingam, Eero Hirvijoki, David Pfefferlé +2
A new formulation of the plasma resistivity that arises from the collisional momentum-transfer rate between electrons and ions is presented. The resistivity computed herein is show…
On the structure and statistical theory of turbulence of extended magnetohydrodynamics
George Miloshevich, Manasvi Lingam, Philip J. Morrison
Recent progress regarding the noncanonical Hamiltonian formulation of extended magnetohydrodynamics (XMHD), a model with Hall drift and electron inertia, is summarized. The advanta…
Extended MHD turbulence and its applications to the solar wind
Hamdi M. Abdelhamid, Manasvi Lingam, Swadesh M. Mahajan
Extended MHD is a one-fluid model that incorporates two-fluid effects such as electron inertia and the Hall drift. This model is used to construct fully nonlinear Alfvénic wave sol…
Multi-region relaxed Hall magnetohydrodynamics with flow
Manasvi Lingam, Hamdi M. Abdelhamid, Stuart R. Hudson
The recent formulations of multi-region relaxed magnetohydrodynamics (MRxMHD) have generalized the famous Woltjer-Taylor states by incorporating a collection of "ideal barriers" th…
General Theory of the Plasmoid Instability
L. Comisso, M. Lingam, Y. -M. Huang +1
A general theory of the onset and development of the plasmoid instability is formulated by means of a principle of least time. The scaling relations for the final aspect ratio, tra…
Fluid moments of the Landau collision operator
Eero Hirvijoki, Manasvi Lingam, David Pfefferlé +3
One important problem in plasma physics is the lack of an accurate and complete description of Coulomb collisions in associated fluid models. To shed light on the problem, this Let…
