Off to Lyon and Chateau de Goutelas
I am travelling to Lyon and Chateau de Goutelas for a week long retreate with the French ISM astrophysicists.
My name is James Beattie and I’m a joint postdoctoral research associate and fellow at Princeton University (Bhattacharjee Group) and the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics. I’m interested in magnetized turbulence and dynamo processes across multiple scales across the Universe, from Earth’s magnetosheath and the interstellar medium, to the intracluster medium and the plasma environments around compact objects. I was awarded my Ph.D. on Jan. 2024 at the Australian National University (advisor: Christoph Federrath), and now live between Toronto in Canada and Princeton in the United States.

CNN reached out and
I just gave a talk on the low Re, high Pm ICM dynamo, including how it might saturated. Check it out in my lecture and talk notes!
More love for the 10k MHD simulation in this short piece, plasma - a beautiful chaos.
In an article called “the beauty of chaos” New Scientist has featured a visualization from the 10k MHD simulation in their magazine!
In order of roughly who I slack, hassle or email the most.
