Horizontally invariant magnetized shearing-sheet equations

ID: horizontally-invariant-magnetized-shearing-sheet-equations

For ideal magnetohydrodynamics at constant mass density , a shearing sheet with velocity and magnetic field obeys
Horizontal invariance and vanishing vertical velocity eliminate nonlinear advection. These equations retain Coriolis acceleration, orbital shear and magnetic tension. The vertical pressure adjusts to balance gravity and magnetic pressure.
