Isotropic Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Equilibrium Equations and generalized Anisotropic Magnetohydrodynamic (Chew–Goldberger–Low, CGL) Equilibrium Equations possess infinite-dimensional groups of intrinsic symmetries. We show that certain non-trivial Lie point transformations (that can be obtained by direct application of the general Lie group analysis method) are equivalent to Bogoyavlenskij sym...

this paper presents the results of a numerical study on the heat transfer performance and the removal process of fluid particles under the influence of magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection in a horizontal channel with an open cavity. the bottom wall of the cavity is heated at a constant temperature (th) while the top wall of the channel is maintained at a relatively low temperature (tc). air wi...

Abstract The aim of the present work is to study propagation Alfvén wave around a 3D proper magnetic null point and its accompanying perturbations. In this line, shock-capturing Godunov-type PLUTO code used solve magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. It found that propagates toward at fan plane wave?wave interaction could be main reason for energy dissipation, ehile, two other planes including s...

In the present work we use a deep-exposure spectrum taken by the SUMER spectrometer in a polar coronal hole in 1996 to measure the ion temperatures of a large number of ions at many different heights above the limb between 0.03 and 0.17 solar radii. We find that the measured ion temperatures are almost always larger than the electron temperatures and exhibit a non-monotonic dependence on the ch...

[1] The cold, magnetized plasma in the Earth’s magnetosphere supports two ultralowfrequency plasma wave modes. Both these modes may exhibit resonant oscillations in the magnetosphere cavity. Theoretical and numerical studies have predicted the existence of cavity/waveguide resonance modes, yet experimental evidence is sparse. In this paper we detail the expected structure of these modes using b...

Magnetic merging on the dayside magnetopause often occurs at high latitudes. Polar measured fluxes of accelerated ions and wave Poynting vectors while skimming the subsolar magnetopause. The measurements indicate that their source was located to the north of the spacecraft, well removed from expected component merging sites. This represents the first use of wave Poynting flux as a merging discr...

The shallow water magnetohydrodynamic system involves different families of physically relevant steady states. In this paper, we design a well-balanced numerical scheme for the shallow water magnetohydrodynamic system with topography, that resolves exactly a large family of steady states. It is obtained by a generalized hydrostatic reconstruction algorithm involving the magnetic field. It is po...

Highly collimated, plasma-filled magnetic-flux tubes are frequently observed on galactic, stellar, and laboratory scales. We propose that a single, universal magnetohydrodynamic pumping process explains why such collimated, plasma-filled magnetic-flux tubes are ubiquitous. Experimental evidence from carefully diagnosed laboratory simulations of astrophysical jets confirms this assertion and is ...
