High-growth-rate magnetohydrodynamic instability in differentially rotating compressible flow

The transport of angular momentum in the outward direction is the fundamental requirement for accretion to proceed in an accretion disk. This objective can be achieved if the accretion flow is turbulent. Instabilities are one of the sources for the turbulence. We study a differentially rotating compressive flow in the presence of nonvanishing radial and azimuthal magnetic field and demonstrate the occurrence of a high growth rate instability. This instability operates in a region where magnetic energy density exceeds the rotational energy density.
