New empirical formulation for the sublimational breakup of graupel and dendritic snow
Ice fragments are generated by sublimation of ice particles in subsaturated conditions in natural clouds. Conceivably, such sublimational breakup would be expected to cause ice...- publication PDF

Reversed dynamo at small scales and large magnetic prandtl number
We show that at large magnetic Prandtl numbers, the Lorentz force does work on the flow at small scales and drives fluid motions, whose energy is dissipated viscously. This...- publication PDF

Combining magnetohydrostatic constraints with Stokes profiles inversions
Context. Inversion codes for the polarized radiative transfer equation, when applied to spectropolarimetric observations (i.e., Stokes vector) in spectral lines, can be used to...- publication PDF
