Three-Dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Spherical Accretion
We present three-dimensional numerical magnetohydrodynamic simulations of radiatively inefficient spherical accretion onto a black hole. The simulations are initialized with a Bondi flow, and with a weak, dynamically unimportant, large-scale magnetic field. The magnetic field is amplified as the gas flows in. When the magnetic pressure approaches equipartition with the gas pressure, the field b...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Buoyant Bubbles in Galaxy Clusters
We report results of 3D MHD simulations of the dynamics of buoyant bubbles in magnetized galaxy cluster media. The simulations are three dimensional extensions of two dimensional calculations reported by Jones & De Young (2005). Initially spherical bubbles and briefly inflated spherical bubbles all with radii a few times smaller than the intracluster medium (ICM) scale height were followed as t...
متن کاملSmall-scale structures in three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
We investigate using direct numerical simulations with grids up to 1536(3) points, the rate at which small scales develop in a decaying three-dimensional MHD flow both for deterministic and random initial conditions. Parallel current and vorticity sheets form at the same spatial locations, and further destabilize and fold or roll up after an initial exponential phase. At high Reynolds numbers, ...
متن کاملVariability of Unstably Accreting Neutron Stars: Three-Dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations
We investigate the photometric variability of neutron stars accreting through a magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor-type instability at the disk-magnetosphere interface, and compare it with the variability during stable accretion, with the goal of looking for possible quasi-periodic oscillations. The lightcurves during unstable accretion are generally chaotic. They often show signs of quasi-periodic varia...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Cold Fronts in Magnetically Turbulent ICM
Steep gradients of temperature and density, called cold fronts, are observed by Chandra in a leading edge of subclusters moving through the intracluster medium (ICM). The presence of cold fronts indicates that thermal conduction across the front is suppressed by magnetic fields. We carried out three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations including anisotropic thermal conduction of a ...
