Pressure anisotropy and viscous heating in weakly collisional plasma turbulence

J Squire, MW Kunz, L Arzamasskiy… - Journal of Plasma …, 2023 - cambridge.org
Pressure anisotropy can strongly influence the dynamics of weakly collisional, high-beta
plasmas, but its effects are missed by standard magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Small …

Magnetohydrodynamics with physics informed neural operators

SG Rosofsky, EA Huerta - Machine Learning: Science and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
The modeling of multi-scale and multi-physics complex systems typically involves the use of

Properties of magnetohydrodynamic modes in compressively driven plasma turbulence

KD Makwana, H Yan - Physical Review X, 2020 - APS
We study properties of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) eigenmodes by decomposing the data
of MHD simulations into linear MHD modes—namely, the Alfvén, slow magnetosonic, and …

The small-scale dynamo in a multiphase supernova-driven medium

FA Gent, MM Mac Low, MJ Korpi-Lagg… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Magnetic fields grow quickly, even at early cosmological times, suggesting the action of a
small-scale dynamo (SSD) in the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies. Many studies have …
