Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence Powered by Magnetorotational Instability in Nascent Proto-Neutron Stars
Youhei Masada, Tomoya Takiwaki, Kei Kotake
Magnetorotational instability (MRI) in a convectively-stable layer around the neutrinosphere is simulated by a three-dimensional model of supernova core. To resolve MRI-unstable mo…

Mean-Field Modeling of -Dynamo Coupled with Direct Numerical Simulations of Rigidly Rotating Convection
Youhei Masada, Takayoshi Sano
The mechanism of large-scale dynamos in rigidly rotating stratified convection is explored by direct numerical simulations (DNS) in Cartesian geometry. A mean-field dynamo model is…
