Vertical Shear Instability in Thermally Stratified Protoplanetary Disks. I. A Linear Stability Analysis
Vertical shear instability (VSI), driven by a vertical gradient of rotational angular velocity, is a promising source of turbulence in protoplanetary disks. We examine the semiglobal stability of thermally stratified disks and find that the VSI consists of surface and body modes: surface modes are c...
