Article: Research conducted at Jadavpur University has provided new information about astrophysics.

"Following the wellknown spacetime decomposition technique as applied to (d vertical bar 1) dimensions we write down the equations of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in a spatially flat generalised FRW universe. Assuming an equation of state for the background cosmic fluid we find solutions in turn for acoustic waves and also for Alfven waves in a warm (cold) magnetised plasma," scientists in Calcutta, India report.

"Interestingly the different plasma modes closely resemble the flat space counterparts except that here the field variables all redshift with their time due to the expansion of the background. It is observed that in the ultrarelativistic limit the field ...
