Hydromagnetic Turbulence
Recent progress in astrophysical hydromagnetic turbulence is being reviewed. The physical ideas behind the now widely accepted Goldreich–Sridhar model and its extension to compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence are introduced. Implications for cosmic ray diffusion and acceleration is being discussed. Dynamo-generated magnetic fields with and without helicity are contrasted against each oth...
متن کاملTurbulence effects in planetesimal formation
The formation of planetesimals is investigated by studying the transport of dust particles in a local threedimensional simulation of accretion disc turbulence. Heavy particles fall rapidly towards themidplane,whereas lighter particles are strongly advected by the flow. For light particles the turbulence leads to a rapid redistribution of particles such that their density per unit mass is approx...

متن کاملHydromagnetic turbulence in computer simulations
Hydromagnetic processes play an important role in many astrophysical systems (e.g. stars, galaxies, accretion discs). This is because the medium is hot enough to be partially or fully ionized. Because of the huge scales involved the medium is usually turbulent, provided there is an instability (shear, convection) facilitating the cascading of energy down to small scales. In turbulence research ...
متن کاملSimulations of nonhelical hydromagnetic turbulence.
Nonhelical hydromagnetic forced turbulence is investigated using large scale simulations on up to 256 processors and 1024(3) mesh points. The magnetic Prandtl number is varied between 1/8 and 30, although in most cases it is unity. When the magnetic Reynolds number is based on the inverse forcing wave number, the critical value for dynamo action is shown to be around 35 for magnetic Prandtl num...
