Rossby Wave Instability of Keplerian Accretion Disks
We find a linear instability of non-axisymmetric Rossby waves in a thin nonmagnetized Keplerian disk when there is a local maximum in the radial profile of a key function L(r) ≡ F(r)S2/Γ(r), where F−1 = ẑ · (∇× v)/Σ is the potential vorticity, S = P/ΣΓ is the entropy, Σ is the surface mass density, P is the vertically integrated pressure, and Γ is the adiabatic index. We consider in detail the ...
متن کاملRossby wave instability does not require sharp resistivity gradients⋆
Context. Rossby wave instability (RWI) at dead zone boundaries may play an important role in planet formation. Viscous hydrodynamics results suggest RWI is excited only when the viscosity changes over a radial distance less than two density scale heights. However in the disks around Solar-mass T Tauri stars, it is not viscosity but magnetic forces that provide the accretion stress beyond about ...
متن کاملAccretion-ejection Instability, Mhd Rossby Wave Instability, Diskoseismology, and the High-frequency Qpo of Microquasars
We present a possible explanation for the high-frequency Quasi-Periodic Oscillations of microquasars by an MHD instability that combines the physics developed, in different contexts, for the AccretionEjection Instability, the Rossby-Wave Instability, and the normal modes of diskoseismic models (which rely on the properties of the relativistic rotation curve in the vicinity of the Marginally Sta...
متن کاملTesting the Hypothesis that the MJO is a Mixed Rossby–Gravity Wave Packet
The Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO), also known as the intraseasonal oscillation (ISO), is a planetaryscale mode of variation in the tropical Indian and western Pacific Oceans. Basic questions about the MJO are why it propagates eastward at;5 m s, why it lasts for intraseasonal time scales, and how it interacts with the fine structure that is embedded in it. This study will test the hypothesis ...
متن کاملThe counter-propagating Rossby-wave perspective on baroclinic instability. II: Application to the Charney model
The constant-density Charney model describes the simplest unstable basic state with a planetary-vorticity gradient, which is uniform and positive, and baroclinicity that is manifest as a negative contribution to the potential-vorticity (PV) gradient at the ground and positive vertical wind shear. Together, these ingredients satisfy the necessary conditions for baroclinic instability. In Part I ...
