A concise review is given of astrophysically motivated experimental and theoretical research
on Taylor–Couette flow. The flows of interest rotate differentially with the inner cylinder faster …

Recent decades have seen enormous progress in the experimental investigation of
fundamental processes that are relevant to geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics …

We discuss a solar dynamo model of Tayler–Spruit type whose Ω Ω-effect is conventionally
produced by a solar-like differential rotation but whose α α-effect is assumed to be …

We argue that the most prominent temporal features of the solar dynamo, in particular the
Hale cycle, the Suess–de Vries cycle (associated with variations of the Gnevyshev–Ohl …

We consider a conventional α–Ω-dynamo model with meridional circulation that exhibits
typical features of the solar dynamo, including a Hale-cycle period of around 20 years and a …

We conduct a linear analysis of axisymmetric magnetorotational instability (MRI) in a
magnetized cylindrical Taylor-Couette (TC) flow for its standard version (SMRI) with a purely …

The quest for an unambiguous detection of magnetorotational instability (MRI) in
experiments is still ongoing despite recent promising results. To conclusively identify MRI in …

The classic, two-component, crust-superfluid model of a neutron star can be formulated as a
noise-driven, linear dynamical system, in which the angular velocities of the crust and …

Magnetorotational instability (MRI) is the most likely mechanism for angular momentum
transport in accretion disks. However, despite numerous efforts, the quest for an …

We consider a conventional α–Ω-dynamo model with meridional circulation that exhibits
