Episodic Magnetic Bubbles and Jets: Astrophysical Implications from Laboratory Experiments
Andrea Ciardi, Sergey V. Lebedev, Adam Frank +6
Collimated outflows (jets) are ubiquitous in the universe appearing around sources as diverse as protostars and extragalactic supermassive blackholes. Jets are thought to be magnet…
Magnetic Mixing in Red Giant and Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars
J. Nordhaus, M. Busso, G. J. Wasserburg +2
The available information on isotopic abundances in the atmospheres of low-mass Red Giant Branch (RGB) and Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars requires that episodes of extensive m…
Protostellar Outflow Evolution in Turbulent Environments
Andrew J. Cunningham, Adam Frank, Jonathan Carroll +2
The link between turbulence in star formatting environments and protostellar jets remains controversial. To explore issues of turbulence and fossil cavities driven by young stellar…
Towards a Spectral Technique for Determining Material Geometry Around Evolved Stars: Application to HD 179821
J. Nordhaus, I. Minchev, B. Sargent +6
HD 179821 is an evolved star of unknown progenitor mass range (either post-Asymptotic Giant Branch or post-Red Supergiant) exhibiting a double peaked spectral energy distribution (…
Dimensionless Measures of Turbulent Magnetohydrodynamic Dissipation Rates
Eric G. Blackman, George B. Field
The magnetic Reynolds number R_M, is defined as the product of a characteristic scale and associated flow speed divided by the microphysical magnetic diffusivity. For laminar flows…
