Magnetic fields in the first galaxies: Dynamo amplification and limits from reionization
Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Jennifer Schober, Christoph Federrath +3
We discuss the amplification of magnetic fields by the small-scale dynamo, a process that could efficiently produce strong magnetic fields in the first galaxies. In addition, we de…
Mach Number Dependence of Turbulent Magnetic Field Amplification: Solenoidal versus Compressive Flows
Christoph Federrath, Gilles Chabrier, Jennifer Schober +3
We study the growth rate and saturation level of the turbulent dynamo in magnetohydrodynamical simulations of turbulence, driven with solenoidal (divergence-free) or compressive (c…
Magnetic Field Amplification by Small-Scale Dynamo Action: Dependence on Turbulence Models and Reynolds and Prandtl Numbers
Jennifer Schober, Dominik Schleicher, Christoph Federrath +2
The small-scale dynamo is a process by which turbulent kinetic energy is converted into magnetic energy, and thus is expected to depend crucially on the nature of turbulence. In th…
