Corrugation Instabilities Across Shock Fronts in Magnetohydrodynamical Astrophysical Systems

Creator:

Mullins, Austin Charles

Abstract:

Slow magnetosonic shock fronts are unstable to changes made to their shape, a phenomenon known as corrugation instability. The computational models studied considers a system where plasma travels across a shock front. Using the code Linogen, the corrugation instability of a shock front can be theoretically modeled. The results show...

Modelling Gravitationally Coupled Modes of High Stellar Mass Protostellar Star-Disk Systems

Creator:

Ahmed, Aneeq

Abstract:

We computationally modeled protostellar star-disk systems with star to disk mass ratio of 10. Our computational models looked at the development of density perturbations in these systems for different geometries of the system. The ratio of the star’s height and radius (rₚ/rₑ) is varied between 0.1746 and 0.88095. We modeled...
