Discussion Led by Megan Donahue - MSU - and Hsiao-Wen Chen - U. Chicago - Observable Implications of Turbulence and Pressure Support on the CGM and ICM

Explore a thought-provoking 28-minute discussion led by Megan Donahue from Michigan State University and Hsiao-Wen Chen from the University of Chicago on the observable implications of turbulence and pressure support in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) and intracluster medium (ICM). Recorded as part of the "Turbulence in the Universe" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, this talk delves into the critical role of turbulence in various astrophysical environments. Gain insights into recent advances in observational and theoretical studies of astrophysical turbulence, spanning from stellar interiors to vast cosmic structures. Discover how this interdisciplinary discussion aims to foster collaboration among experts from diverse subfields, covering topics such as turbulent dynamo, magnetic reconnection, plasma physics, and numerical simulations. Enhance your understanding of how turbulence impacts star formation, cosmic rays, accretion, and galaxy formation and evolution.
