Clustering and dynamic decoupling of dust grains in turbulent molecular clouds
Lars Mattsson, Akshay Bhatnagar, Fred A. Gent +1
We present high resolution () simulations of super-/hyper-sonic isothermal hydrodynamic turbulence inside an interstellar molecular cloud (resolving scales of typically 20…
Magnetic field effects on the ISM structure and galactic outflows
A. Shukurov, C. C. Evirgen, A. Fletcher +2
The role of magnetic fields in the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM) is explored using magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations that include energy injection by supernova (SN) exp…
Mean fields and fluctuations in compressible magnetohydrodynamic flows
J. F. Hollins, G. R. Sarson, C. C. Evirgen +3
We apply Gaussian smoothing to obtain mean magnetic field, density, velocity, and magnetic and kinetic energy densities from our numerical model of the interstellar medium, based o…
Sensitivity to luminosity, centrifugal force, and boundary conditions in spherical shell convection
Petri J. Käpylä, Frederick A. Gent, Nigul Olspert +2
We test the sensitivity of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic turbulent convection simulations with respect to Mach number, thermal and magnetic boundary conditions, and the cent…
Modelling supernova driven turbulence
Frederick A. Gent, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Maarit J. Käpylä +2
High Mach number shocks are ubiquitous in interstellar turbulence. The Pencil Code is particularly well suited to the study of magnetohydrodynamics in weakly compressible turbulenc…
Magnetic shocks and substructures excited by torsional Alfvén wave interactions in merging expanding flux tubes
B. Snow, V. Fedun, F. A. Gent +2
Vortex motions are frequently observed on the solar photosphere. These motions may play a key role in the transport of energy and momentum from the lower atmosphere into the upper…
