Astrophysical magnetic fields and nonlinear dynamo theory

A Brandenburg, K Subramanian - Physics Reports, 2005 - Elsevier
The current understanding of astrophysical magnetic fields is reviewed, focusing on their
generation and maintenance by turbulence. In the astrophysical context this generation is …

The sonic scale of interstellar turbulence

C Federrath, RS Klessen, L Iapichino, JR Beattie - Nature Astronomy, 2021 - nature.com

The phenomenology of small-scale turbulence

KR Sreenivasan, RA Antonia - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 1997 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract I have sometimes thought that what makes a man's work classic is often just this
multiplicity [of interpretations], which invites and at the same time resists our craving for a …

[LIVRE][B] Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence

D Biskamp - 2003 - books.google.com

On the star formation efficiency of turbulent magnetized clouds

C Federrath, RS Klessen - The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the star formation efficiency (SFE) in simulations and observations of turbulent,
magnetized, molecular clouds. We find that the probability density functions (PDFs) of the …

On the universality of supersonic turbulence

C Federrath - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013 - academic.oup.com
Compressible turbulence shapes the structure of the interstellar medium of our Galaxy and
likely plays an important role also during structure formation in the early Universe. The …

Efficient magnetic-field amplification due to the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in binary neutron star mergers
