MHD Effects on Thermohaline Mixing in Stars - Adrian Fraser

Explore the impact of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) on thermohaline mixing in stellar interiors through this conference talk by Adrian Fraser. Delivered as part of the Transport in Stellar Interiors (TRANSTAR-C21) Conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, the presentation delves into one of the largest uncertainties in stellar physics. Gain insights into how MHD effects influence the transport of heat, chemical elements, and angular momentum within stars. Discover how recent observational data from TESS and spectroscopic studies, advancements in 1D models, and sophisticated 3D simulations are challenging and refining our understanding of these processes. Learn about the collaborative efforts of researchers working on transport processes from various perspectives, including observations, theoretical calculations, and stellar models, and how these approaches can be combined to enhance our comprehension of stellar physics.
