  • Model for the relationship of granulation and supergranulation 
    Krishan, V (The University of Arizona Press, 1991)
    In this report a mechanism is proposed for producing the observed solar supergranulation from the photospheric granulation by a dissipative decay of two-dimensional turbulence, which leads to concentration of the energy ...
  • A model of solar granulation through inverse cascade 
    Krishan, V (Royal Astronomical Society, 1991-05)
    Nonlinear interactions between small fluid elements in an energetically open system facilitate the formation of large coherent stable structures. This is known as self-organization. Solar granulation on all scales is ...
  • Modeling of short scale turbulence in the solar wind 
    Krishan, V; Mahajan, S. M (European Geosciences Union, 2005-01)
    The solar wind serves as a laboratory for investigating magnetohydrodynamic turbulence under conditions irreproducible on the terra firma. Here we show that the frame work of Hall magnetohydrodynamics (HMHD), which can ...
  • Modelling of a solar coronal loop 
    Krishan, V (Cambridge University Press, 1996-12)
    Montgomery and co-workers have developed a framework to describe the steady state of a turbulent magnetofluid, without the usual recourse to linearization. Thus the magnetic and velocity fields emerge in their fully nonlinear ...
  • Modelling of Plasma Structures in the Solar Atmosphere 
    Krishan, V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1984)
    A maximal helicity principle is proposed to study the stability of plasma structures in the solar atmosphere. This principle derives from the statistical treatment of the magnetohydrodynamical turbulence. The steady state ...
  • Modelling of Solar Coronal Oscillations 
    Krishan, V (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1997)
    The study of coronal osciallations is important since these oscillations could be responsible for the heating of the solar corona. Coronal structures are ex[ected to undergo three types of oscillations - non-compressional ...
  • Modelling rotation curves -- the turbulent way 
    Prabhu, R. D; Krishan, V (Astronomical Society of India, 1993)
    Helical hydrodynamic turbulence can magnify perturbation seed eddies and this can lead to the appearance of large scale structures. The evolution of the instability is accompanied by a transfer of energy from small scale ...
  • Models of Flux Tubes from Constrained Relaxation 
    Mangalam, A; Krishan, V (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2000-12)
    We study the relaxation of a compressible plasma to an equilibrium with flow. The constraints of conservation of mass, energy, angular momentum, cross-helicity and relative magnetic helicity are imposed. Equilibria ...
  • The modulation of radiation in an electron-positron plasma 
    Gangadhara, R. T; Krishan, V; Shukla, P. K (Royal Astronomical Society, 1993-05-01)
    The modulational instability of a large-amplitude, linearly polarized electromagnetic wave propagating in an electron-positron plasma is considered, including the combined effect of relativistic mass variation of the plasma ...
  • Neutron oscillation and the primordial magnetic field 
    Sivaram, C; Krishan, V (Gordon and Breach Science Publishers, 1983)
    The phenomenon of neutron-antineutron oscillations, recently proposed as a novel consequence of grand unified theories, permits limits to be placed on any primordial field present during the nucleosynthetic stage of the ...
  • Neutron oscillation as a source of excess sub-GeV antiprotons in galactic cosmic rays 
    Sivaram, C; Krishan, V (Nature Publishing Group, 1982-09)
    The recent detection1,2 of an antiproton/proton (/p) ratio at energies much less than 1 GeV is several orders of magnitude above that predicted for production from primary cosmic ray collisions. It is well recognized that ...
  • Nonlinear analysis of two contra-streaming electron beams - plasma system 
    Krishan, V (D.Reidel Publishing Co.,, 1978-08)
    The nonlinear theory of electromagnetic modes in the radio frequency range, excited from a system consisting of two contra-streaming electron beams, supports the experimental observation that out of w~(n + ½)w/subce,w = ...
  • Nonlinear jeans instability in an uniformly rotating gas 
    Chakrabarti, N; Pal, B; Krishan, V (Springer Netherlands, 2008)
    A nonlinear stability analysis of a uniformly rotating gas in a gravitational field has been performed. One dimensional non-linear equations have been solved by the double-Lagrangian transformation method. An explosive ...
  • Observations and interpretation of solar decameter type IIIb radio bursts 
    Krishan, V; Subramanian, K. R; Sastry, Ch. V (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1980-06)
    Solar decameter bursts of Type IIIb are observed with a multichannel radiometer at wavelengths around 12m. The time and frequency resolutions were 10 ms and 100 kHz. Observations on the time structure of these bursts are ...
  • Observations and interpretation of the slowly varying component of solar radio emission at decameter wavelengths 
    Sastry, Ch. V; Dwarakanath, K. S; Shevgaonkar, R. K; Krishan, V (D. Reidel Publishing Co., 1981-10)
    We have observed the slowly varying component of solar radio emission at a frequency of 34.5 MHz with half power beam widths of 26/40 in the east-west and north-south directions, respectively. It is found that the observed ...
  • On the correlation between exciter duration and decay constant of solar decameter Type III radio bursts 
    Subramanian, K. R; Krishan, V; Sastry, Ch. V (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1981-04)
    It is observed that while there exists a strong correlation between the decay constant and the exciter duration for isolated type III radio bursts, it is absent for those type III radio bursts which are preceded by type ...
  • On the Fractal Structure of Solar Supergranulation 
    Paniveni, U; Krishan, V; Singh, J; Srikanth, R (Springer, 2005-10)
    We employ fractal analysis to study the complexity of supergranulation structure using the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) dopplergrams. Our data consists of 200 visually selected supergranular cells, for which ...
  • One more explanation of superluminal motion 
    Krishan, V (Indian Academy Sciences, 1988-12)
    A model in which stimulated Raman scattering produces superluminal motion in extragalactic radio sources is examined. The scattering medium studied is a plasma whose position, density, and temperature determine the rate ...
  • One-third spectrum in large scale Hall-magnetohydrodynamic turbulence 
    Krishan, V; Mahajan, S. M (American Institute of Physics, 2004-11)
    In a recent study [H. Branover, A. Eidelman, and E. Golbraikh, ``On the universality of large-scale turbulence,'' Phys. Fluids 16, 845 (2004)] the properties of the large scale turbulence have been investigated theoretically ...
  • Optical interferometric observations of a transient event of 1986 March 13 in the coma of Comet Halley 
    Prasad, D. C; Chandrasekhar, T; Desai, J. N; Ashok, N. M; Krishan, V (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1989-03)
    During the recent apparition of Comet Halley in 1985-86, a transient ionic event in the form of a blob of H2O(+) emission was recorded in the coma at about 0 h UT on March 13, 1986. Observations were carried out using a ...
