Journal ArticleDOI
Gyrokinetic turbulence: a nonlinear route to dissipation through phase space
Alexander Schekochihin,Steven Cowley,William Dorland,Gregory W. Hammett,Gregory G. Howes,Gabriel G. Plunk,Eliot Quataert,Tomoya Tatsuno +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual framework for understanding kinetic plasma turbulence as a generalized form of energy cascade in phase space is presented, emphasizing that conversion of turbulent energy into thermodynamic heat is only achievable in the presence of some (however small) degree of collisionality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accretion-Induced Collapse From Helium Star + White Dwarf Binaries
Jared Brooks,Josiah Schwab,Josiah Schwab,Lars Bildsten,Lars Bildsten,Eliot Quataert,Bill Paxton +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the first true binary simulations of He star + O/Ne white dwarf (WD) binaries, focusing on a $1.5 M_\odot$ He star in a 3 hour orbital period with O/NE WDs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Impact of Type Ia Supernovae in Quiescent Galaxies. I. Formation of the Multiphase Interstellar Medium
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed that uneven heating from Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), together with radiative cooling, can lead to the formation of the cool phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
When Should We Treat Galaxies as Isolated
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derive criteria for when disks can be well-approximated as "isolated" as a function of mass, redshift, and disk stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Buoyancy instabilities in degenerate, collisional, magnetized plasmas
Philip Chang,Eliot Quataert +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study analogous buoyancy instabilities in degenerate collisional plasmas, i.e., when the electron collision frequency is large compared to the electron cyclotron frequency, and show that the range of wavelengths that are unstable is independent of the magnetic field strength.
