Tearing instability in relativistic magnetically dominated plasmas
Many astrophysical sources of high energy emission, such as black hole magnetospheres, superstrongly magnetized neutron stars (magnetars), and probably relativistic jets in Active Galactic Nuclei and Gamma Ray Bursts involve relativistically magnetically dominated plasma. In such plasma the energy density of magnetic field greatly exceeds the thermal and the rest mass energy density of particle...
متن کاملSecondary Kelvin–Helmholtz instability in weakly stratified shear flow
The growth of secondary vortices on the braids separating Kelvin–Helmholtz billows is investigated via numerical simulations. The similarity theory of Corcos & Sherman (1976) is extended to include mixing processes with Prandtl number greater than unity, and is shown to provide a useful description of the physics of the braid regions just prior to the onset of secondary instability. The numeric...
متن کاملThe Hall instability of weakly ionized , radially stratified , rotating disks
Cool weakly ionized gaseous rotating disk, are considered by many models as the origin of the evolution of protoplanetary clouds. Instabilities against perturbations in such disks play an important role in the theory of the formation of stars and planets. Thus, a hierarchy of successive fragmentations into smaller and smaller pieces as a part of the Kant-Laplace theory of formation of the plane...
متن کاملBand gaps and the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability.
We consider the linear stability of two inviscid fluids, in the presence of gravity, sheared past each other and separated by a flexible plate. Conditions for exponential growth of velocity perturbations are found as functions of the flexural rigidity of the plate and the shear rate. This Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is then analyzed in the presence of plates with spatially periodic (with perio...
متن کاملKelvin-helmholtz Instability by Sph
In this paper, we have modeled the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) problem of an incompressible two-phase immiscible fluid in a stratified inviscid shear flow with interfacial tension using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The time dependent evolution of the two-fluid interface over a wide range of Richardson number (Ri) and for three different density ratios is numerically inve...
