What is it about?

New exact solution of MHD equations has allowed us to discover unusual physical effect of spontaneous arising of rotation in MHD flows. The reasons of this phenomenon is investigated in details.

Why is it important?

Exact solutions is important to research intrinsic properties of MHD equations. New physical effects must be well proved. If we have the exact solution of well-established equations we have the serious base to predict the existence of obtained phenomenon in the nature. In the article we present the new phenomenon of spontaneous arising of rotation in MHD jet flows.

Perspectives

The results of this article open the perspectives to discover the phenomenon of spontaneous arising of rotation in other hydrodynamic flows and I hope other researchers can be inspired to work in this field.
