Magnetic flux captured by an accretion disk
We suggest a possible mechanism of efficient transport of the large-scale external magnetic flux inward through a turbulent accretion disk. The outward drift by turbulent diffusion which limits the effectiveness of this process is reduced if the external

Antiprotons from Dark Matter: Effects of a Position-Dependent Diffusion Coefficient
Energetic antiprotons in cosmic rays can serve as an important indirect signature of dark matter. Conventionally, the antiproton flux from dark matter decays or annihilations is calculated by solving the transport equation with a space-independent ...

Transient convective diffusion to a disk electrode [PDF]
Summary Mass transfer to a rotating disk electrode is calculated at large times after aconcentration step or a flux step at the surface. Radial dependence of concentration is ignored. Further application of results to treat more complex boundary conditions is discussed.

Suppression of type I migration by disk winds
Planets less massive than Saturn tend to rapidly migrate inward in protoplanetary disks. This is the so-called type I migration. Simulations attempting to reproduce the observed properties of exoplanets show that type I migration needs to be ...

Stochastic Loewner evolution in multiply connected domains [PDF]
We construct radial stochastic Loewner evolution in multiply connected domains, choosing the unit disk with concentric circular slits as a family of standard domains.

Orbital Evolution of Moons in Weakly Accreting Circumplanetary Disks
We investigate the formation of hot and massive circumplanetary disks (CPDs) and the orbital evolution of satellites formed in these disks. Because of the comparatively small size-scale of the sub-disk, quick magnetic diffusion prevents the ...

[Abridged] Theoretical and numerical studies of star formation have shown that magnetic field (B) has a strong influence on both disk formation and fragmentation; even a relatively low B can prevent these processes. However, very few studies investigated

Parker-Jeans Instability of Gaseous Disks Including the Effect of Cosmic Rays [PDF]
We use linear analysis to examine the effect of cosmic rays (CRs) on the Parker-Jeans instability of magnetized self-gravitating gaseous disks. We adopt a slab equilibrium model in which the gravity (including self-gravity) is perpendicular to the mid ...

Mean exit time for surface-mediated diffusion: spectral analysis and asymptotic behavior
We consider a model of surface-mediated diffusion with alternating phases of pure bulk and surface diffusion. For this process, we compute the mean exit time from a disk through a hole on the circle.
