Stopping inward planetary migration by a toroidal magnetic field

We calculate the linear torque exerted by a planet on a circular orbit on a disc containing a toroidal magnetic field. All fluid perturbations are singular at the so--called magnetic resonances, where the Doppler shifted frequency of the perturbation matches that of a slow MHD wave propagating along...
