Stars form within molecular clouds but our understanding of this fundamental process
remains hampered by the complexity of the physics that drives their evolution. We review our …

We review the role that magnetic field may have on the formation and evolution of molecular
clouds. After a brief presentation and main assumptions leading to ideal MHD equations …

This review of scaling theories of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence aims to put the
developments of the last few years in the context of the canonical time line (from Kolmogorov …

We develop a framework for studying the statistical properties of current sheets in numerical
simulations of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence with a strong guide field, as …

A discussion of the advantages and limitations of the concept of critical balance (CB), as
employed in turbulence phenomenologies, is presented. The incompressible …

The energy spectrum of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence attracts interest due to its
fundamental importance and its relevance for interpreting astrophysical data. Here we …

The presence of a mean magnetic field aligned with the direction of the acceleration greatly
modifies the development of the Rayleigh–Taylor instability (RTI). High resolution direct …

Context. Galaxy evolution and star formation are two multi-scale problems tightly linked to
each other. Aims. We aim to describe simultaneously the large-scale evolution widely …

In a strongly magnetized, magnetically dominated relativistic plasma, Alfvénic turbulence
can extend to scales much smaller than the particle inertial scales. It leads to an energy …
