On the nature of the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability in Astrophysical Plasma: The case of uniform magnetic field strength
Andrew Hillier
The magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability has been shown to play a key role in many astrophysical systems. The equation for the growth rate of this instability in the incompressible…
Investigating prominence turbulence with Hinode SOT Dopplergrams
Andrew Hillier, Takeshi Matsumoto, Kiyoshi Ichimoto
Quiescent prominences host a diverse range of flows, including Rayleigh-Taylor instability driven upflows and impulsive downflows, and so it is no surprise that turbulent motions a…
Nonlinear Instability and Intermittent Nature of Magnetic Reconnection in Solar Chromosphere
K. A. P. Singh, Andrew Hillier, H. Isobe +1
The recent observations of Singh et al. (2012) have shown multiple plasma ejections and the intermittent nature of magnetic reconnection in the solar chromosphere, highlighting the…
The formation and evolution of reconnection-driven slow-mode shocks in a partially ionised plasma
Andrew Hillier, Shinsuke Takasao, Naoki Nakamura
The role of slow-mode MHD shocks in magnetic reconnection is one of great importance for energy conversion and transport, but in many astrophysical plasmas the plasma is not fully…
