Dust Settling in Magnetorotationally-Driven Turbulent Discs I: Numerical Methods and Evidence for a Vigorous Streaming Instability

Dinshaw S. Balsara, David A. Tilley, Terrence Rettig +1

(Abridged) In this paper we have used the RIEMANN code for computational astrophysics to study the interaction of a realistic distribution of dust grains with gas in a vertically s…

A Two-Fluid Method for Ambipolar Diffusion

David A. Tilley, Dinshaw S. Balsara

We present a semi-implicit method for isothermal two-fluid ion-neutral ambipolar drift that is second-order accurate in space and time. The method has been implemented in the RIEMA…

Simulating Anisotropic Thermal Conduction in Supernova Remnants, Implications for the Interstellar Medium

D. S. Balsara, A. J. Bendinelli, D. A. Tilley +2

We present a large number of two and a half dimensional simulations of supernova remnants expanding into interstellar media having a range of densities, temperatures and magnetic f…

Post-Outburst Observations of V1647 Ori: Detection of a Brief Warm, Molecular Outflow

Sean Brittain, Terrence Rettig, Theodore Simon +4

We present new observations of the fundamental ro-vibrational CO spectrum of V1647 Ori, the young star whose recent outburst illuminated McNeil's Nebula. Previous spectra, acquired…

Simulations of the Boundary Layer Between a White Dwarf and its Accretion Disk

Dinshaw S. Balsara, Jacob Lund Fisker, Patrick Godon +1

Using a 2.5D time-dependent axisymmetric numerical code we recently developed, we solve the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations (including an alpha-viscosity prescription) to…

Forbush Decrease Data with a Simple Model

C. D'Andrea, J. Poirier, D. S. Balsara

On October 28, 2003 an earthward-directed coronal mass ejection (CME) was observed from SOHO/LASCO imagery in conjunction with an X17 solar flare. The CME, traveling at nearly 2000…
