Stability of Rotating Gravitating Streams
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper treats the stability of two superposed gravitating streams rotating about the axis transverse to the horizontal magnetic field. The critical wave number for instability is found to be affected by rotation for propagation perpendicular to the axis about which the system rotates. The critical wave number for instability is not affected by rotation when waves propagate along the axis of rotation. The critical wave number is affected by both the magnetic field and the streaming velocity in both cases. Both the magnetic field and the rotation are stabilizing, while the streaming velocity is destabilizing.

Local stability criterion for self-gravitating disks in modified gravity
We study local stability of self-gravitating fluid and stellar disk in the context of modified gravity theories which predict a Yukawa-like term in the gravitational potential of a point mass. We investigate the effect of such a Yukawa-like term on the dynamics of self-gravitating disks. More specifically, we investigate the consequences of the presence of this term for the local stability of t...
متن کاملLocal stability criterion for a gravitating disk of stars
Computer N -body experiments are desribed which test the validities of the original Toomre’s (1964) criterion and of a generalized criterion for local stability of Jeans-type perturbations in a self-gravitating, infinitesimally thin, and practically collisionless disk of stars. The fact that the nonaxisymmetric perturbations in the differentially rotating system are more unstable than the axisy...
متن کاملStability of rotating spherical stellar systems
We study the stability of rotating collisionless self-gravitating spherical systems by using high resolution N-body experiments on a Connection Machine CM-5. We added rotation to Ossipkov-Merritt (hereafter OM) anisotropic spherical systems by using two methods. The first method conserves the anisotropy of the distribution function defined in the OM algorithm. The second method distorts the sys...
متن کاملGravitating Non-Abelian Solitons and Black Holes with Yang-Mills Fields
We present a review of gravitating particle-like and black hole solutions with nonAbelian gauge fields. The emphasis is given to the description of the structure of the solutions and to the connection with the results of flat space soliton physics. We describe the Bartnik-McKinnon solitons and the non-Abelian black holes arising in the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory, and consider their various gene...
متن کاملCollective Instabilities of Self - Gravitating Systems . III - - Disk - Halo System - - Fumio
The instability modes of the infinitesimally thin self-gravitating disk, which is composed of rotating and non-rotating parts, are investigated. By solving the dispersion relation numerically under various physical situations, two growing modes are found. They are the modified Jeans mode of rotating component or non-rotating one and the Landau mode by wave-particle (non-rotating component) inte...
