 | Instability of an Infinite Homogeneous Rotating Medium in Presence of a Magnetic Field Author : Varma, T.D. Source : Defence Science Journal ; Vol:15(2) ; 1965 ; pp 93-98 Subject : 531 Mechanics Keywords : Jeans Criteria;Electrical Conductivity;Magnetic Field;Homogeneous Rotating Abstract : In the present paper the necessary and sufficient condition for the gravitational instability of a homogeneous rotating medium in presence of a magnetic field has been discussed. The medium is assumed to have finite electrical conductivity and viscosity. The criteria for stability comes out to be the Jeans criteria. |
