Amer. Oct. 39/3 Among these [theories] one can mention the magneto-hydrodynamics of charged particles proposed by the Swedish cosmologist H. Alfven. 1958 Observer 7 Sept. 13/5 ‘Magnetohydrodynamics’, a branch of theoretical physics which combines classical theory of the behaviour of water and of magnetic fields,..is becoming one of the most elaborate and enthralling branches of science. 1973 M. Harwit Astrophysical Concepts vi. 194 Magnetohydrodynamics..tells us that the presence of a force, such as a gravitational or electrostatic force, acting normal to the magnetic field, can produce a drifting motion. 1977 Daily Colonist (Victoria, Brit. Columbia) 15 May 2/1 Dr. John Dicks said tests showed the world's only coal-fired magnetohydrodynamics plant could operate on plentiful high-sulfur coal. 1991 Univ. Maryland Graduate School Catal. 1991–3 86/2 Included in the energy conversion coverage are gas turbines..fuel cells and magnetohydrodynamics. Derivatives magˌnetohydrodyˈnamicist n. an expert in or student of magnetohydrodynamics.

Amer. Feb. 41/1 How the corpuscles travel through space is still in dispute. The Alfvén school of t‘magneto-hydrodynamicists’, for instance, maintains that the Chapman–Ferraro theory is basically incorrect, and that the solar corpuscles, as well as cosmic rays, are accelerated by magnetic and electrical fields in space. 1983 Nature 19 May 262/1 The magnetic fields in the Sun..behave in ways that are baffling even to the expert magnetohydrodynamicist.
