LEAP: A Rapid Neural Surrogate of Multi-Fluid MHD at Europa

arXiv:2606.10215v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Characterizing Europa's subsurface ocean is a key objective of the Europa Clipper and JUICE missions in the search for life beyond Earth. Although the ocean's induced magnetic field provides key constraints on habitability, interpretation is complicated by perturbations arising from Jupiter's plasma interaction with Europa. Physics-based models (e.g. magnetohydrodynamic, MHD) required to characterize these effects are physically comprehensive,...

Implementation and Verification of Toroidal Resistive Wall Boundary Conditions in the PIXIE3D MHD code using a Boundary Integral Method

Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the complete formulation of resistive wall boundary conditions in axisymmetric toroidal geometries as implemented in the PIXIE3D extended magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code, along with a complete suite of analytical verification examples that demonstrate correctness in the implementation. The formulation centers around a thin wall approximation and a Boundary Integral Method to solve for the magnetic scalar potential in the immediately surrounding vacuum....

Inverse energy transfer in decaying MHD turbulence: A shell-to-shell analysis

Announce Type: new Abstract: In decaying magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, energy can be transported from small to large scales, known as inverse transfer. We explore the mechanism behind this phenomenon using shell-to-shell transfer functions.

Decoupled iterative schemes for solving stationary MHD problems

arXiv:2606.04467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We develop a novel iterative approach for solving the incompressible magnetohydrodynamics problem. The main idea is to split the velocity-momentum and magnetic induction equations with respect to the diffusive terms. As a result, we get a smaller system that is iteration-level-dependent, along with two Stokes systems that need to be assembled only once.

Lattice Boltzmann Methods for Compressible (Magneto)hydrodynamics

arXiv:2606.00641v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The simulation of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows presents a highly complex, tightly coupled transport problem that poses severe numerical and computational demands. Towards this, we propose a novel class of Lattice Boltzmann Methods (LBM) schemes capable of solving a wide range of transport equation systems with high computational efficiency and scalability. Our approach exploits the algorithmic structure of kinetic formulations to separately...

First Principles Magnetohydrodynamical Theory for the Expanding Box Model

arXiv:2606.10283v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Expanding Box Model (EBM) has been widely employed to simulate multiscale plasma phenomena in the expanding solar wind by transforming the MHD equations to a co-moving, non-inertial frame. However, traditional formulations have suffered from historical ambiguity regarding the physical separation between the co-moving and inertial reference frames, primarily arising from a classical approximation of an invariant magnetic field between them....

Resistive wall mode induced disruptions in an advanced tokamak

arXiv:2606.02349v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Resistive wall mode is one of the leading causes for tokamak disruptions above the no-wall $\beta_N$ limit. This paper presents nonlinear three-dimensional resistive MHD simulations of an RWM-induced disruption in a CFETR baseline steady-state equilibrium using the NIMROD code. Linear calculations confirm the dominant presence of the $n=1$ RWM instability, whose growth rate is strongly sensitive to the wall response and becomes weakly dependent...

Dynamic Alignment as a Statistical Survival Effect

Announce Type: replace Abstract: Dynamic alignment in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is often interpreted as a scale-dependent tendency of counterpropagating Els\"asser increments to become increasingly aligned at smaller perpendicular scales, with direct implications for the inertial-range spectrum of space and astrophysical plasma turbulence. We show that this is not the correct physical interpretation of the standard amplitude-weighted measurements. Using high-resolution...

Peristaltic Flow in Compressible, Ideal Magnetohydrodynamics: A Mechanism For Solar Spicules

Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present analytical model for peristaltic transport within compressible, ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). By employing small-amplitude perturbation expansion, under thin-tube long-wavelength approximation with a uniform axial background magnetic field, we study non-linear coupling between thermodynamic pressure variations and Maxwell's magnetic tension stresses. The resulting net time-averaged volumetric flow rate $\langle Q \rangle$ is calculated.

Local relaxation and scale-dependent alignment in compressible, magnetized turbulence

arXiv:2504.15538v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Driven net- and no-net-flux MHD turbulence simulations up to $10,\!368^3$ reveal sign-mixed velocity-magnetic, velocity-vorticity, and magnetic-current aligned patches below the energy equipartition scale. The first two angles scale as $\lambda^{1/8}$ and $\lambda^{1/16}$, while magnetic-current alignment varies weakly with scale. We develop and test a constant-flux transport model for departures from relaxed states, which predicts both...
