Instabilities of rotational flows in azimuthal magnetic fields of arbitrary radial dependence
Oleg N. Kirillov, Frank Stefani, Yasuhide Fukumoto
Using the WKB approximation we perform a linear stability analysis for a rotational flow of a viscous and electrically conducting fluid in an external azimuthal magnetic field that…

A unifying picture of helical and azimuthal MRI, and the universal significance of the Liu limit
Oleg N. Kirillov, Frank Stefani, Yasuhide Fukumoto
The magnetorotational instability (MRI) plays a key role for cosmic structure formation by triggering turbulence in the rotating flows of accretion disks that would be otherwise hy…
