Important plasma problems in astrophysics [PDF]
Physics of Plasmas, 1995 In astrophysics, plasmas occur under very extreme conditions. For example there are ultra strong magnetic fields in neutron stars) relativistic plasmas around black holes and in jets, extremely energetic particles such as cosmic rays in the interstellar ...

Science, 1991
Degenerate bodies composed primarily of dense hydrogen and helium plasmas range from giant planets to the so far hypothetical brown dwarfs. More massive objects begin their lives as nondegenerate stars and may end as white dwarfs, composed primarily of carbon and oxygen, or as neutron stars, with solid crusts of iron or heavier elements and cores of ...

Numerical methods for astrophysical plasmas
Computer Physics Communications, 1986This review covers some numerical methods used for astrophysical plasmas and centers mainly on methods developed for astrophysical problems. After general remarks on DELTA multiplied by (times) B in astrophysical MHD calculations, a first-order, one-sided finite-difference formulation is derived for spherical and cylindrical geometries, respectively ...

Transsonic Instabilities in Laboratory and Astrophysical Plasmas
Physica Scripta, 2004Waves and instabilities of transsonically rotating axisymmetric plasmas present a highly complex problem that is of interest for two unrelated fields of research, viz. laboratory tokamak confinement for the eventual thermonuclear energy production and the dynamics of a vast number of astrophysical plasmas rotating about compact objects, broadly ...

Astrophysical plasma laboratories
Physics World, 1994Almost all of the material in the Universe is in the form of ionized gas or plasma. The interstellar medium is a low-temperature, low-density plasma whilst the interiors of stars are made of extremely hot and dense plasmas. A variety of different plasma conditions can exist within the same star; the centre of the Sun, for example, is at a temperature ...
