Dimensionless numbers that characterise the internal wave propagation in rotating and magnetic stellar radiation zones.

Dimensionless numbers Meaning

SΩ = N/2Ωs Rotation stability parameter: stratification restoring force vs. Coriolis acceleration
SB = N/ωA Magnetic stability parameter: stratification restoring force vs. Lorentz force
Ro = σs/2Ωs Rossby number: wave inertia vs. Coriolis acceleration
Elsasser number: Lorentz force vs. Coriolis acceleration
Fr = σs/N Froude number: wave inertia vs. stratification restoring force
Pr = ν/K Prandtl number: Viscous diffusion vs. heat diffusion
q = η/K Roberts number: Ohmic diffusion vs. heat diffusion
MHD TA control parameter
