Radially Magnetized Protoplanetary Disk: Vertical Profile
Matthew Russo, Christopher Thompson
This paper studies the response of a thin accretion disk to an external radial magnetic field. Our focus is on protoplanetary disks (PPDs), which are exposed during their later evo…
Constrained Evolution of a Radially Magnetized Protoplanetary Disk: Implications for Planetary Migration
Matthew Russo, Christopher Thompson
We consider the inner AU of a protoplanetary disk (PPD), at a stage where angular momentum transport is driven by the mixing of a radial magnetic field into the disk from a…
Rotation of Giant Stars
Yevgeni Kissin, Christopher Thompson
The internal rotation of post-main sequence stars is investigated, in response to the convective pumping of angular momentum toward the stellar core, combined with a tight magnetic…
Spin and Magnetism of White Dwarfs
Yevgeni Kissin, Christopher Thompson
The magnetism and rotation of white dwarf (WD) stars are investigated in relation to a hydromagnetic dynamo operating in the progenitor during shell burning phases. The downward pu…
