Numerical Simulations

I am mainly involved in two topics within Numerical Astrophysics. These topics are associated with theoretical and numerical studies of generation and evolution of magnetic fields. A brief description of the numerical experiments on these topics and some of the results produced by the simulations are included in the following links:

  • Linear, non-linear and turbulent Dynamos

  • Magnetic flux emergence in the Sun

  • Coronal sigmoids

  • Undulating magnetic fields and Ellerman Bombs

  • Reconnection jets

  • Eruption of flux ropes (movies included)

  • Highlights
