Key Equations

$$\frac{\partial \rho}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot (\rho \mathbf{u}) = 0$$
$$\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t} = -\nabla \times \mathbf{E}$$
$$\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t} = \nabla \times (\mathbf{u} \times \mathbf{B})$$
$$R_m = \frac{\mu_0 u L}{\eta} = \frac{\text{advection}}{\text{diffusion}}$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
