On general transformations and variational principles of three-dimensional incompressible gravitating flows in ideal MHD
Abstract
In this paper, we apply the general theory of Arnold (1965, 1966) and Moffatt et al. (1997). We search sufficient conditions for the linear stability of steady three-dimensional incompressible gravitating flows in ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The results suggest that the solar and the stellar convection zones must be sensitive to the density stratification.
