Equilibrium and stability of magnetohydrodynamic flows in annular channels

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows in annular channels are of great current interest due to experimental search for the so-called magnetorotational instability (MRI) which is important for astrophysical applications (accretion disk physics, magnetic dynamo effect). <p>The main point of MRI experi...
