1 PublicationThe azimuthal MRI in experiment: confirmations and surprises
Stefani, F.
Abstract
The azimuthal magnetorotational instability (AMRI) may be of considerable importance for destabilizing accretion disks and plays also a central role in the concept of the MRI dynamo. We report the results of a liquid metal Taylor-Couette experiment that shows the occurrence of an azimuthal MRI in the expected range of Hartmann numbers. We also discuss some peculiarities of the experimental results which are connected with the slight symmetry breaking of the applied magnetic field.
