Linear analysis of the hall effect in protostellar disks

The effects of Hall electromotive forces (HEMFs) on the linear stability of protostellar disks are examined. Earlier work on this topic focused on axial field and perturbation wavenumber geometry. Here we treat the problem more generally. Both axisymmetric and nonaxisymmetric cases are treated. Thou...
