Tidal triggers and the predictability of solar activity
F. Stefani, G. M. Horstmann, G. Mamatsashvili +1
Magneto-Rossby waves in the solar tachocline are currently considered to be one of the main determinants of solar activity. In particular, they can give rise to the quasi-biennial…
Reappraising the Elatina series: What if the Solar Interpretation Were Correct?
F. Stefani, M. Gugliotta, G. M. Horstmann +2
We revisit the sedimentary laminae from the Neoproterozoic Elatina Formation of South Australia. These were first interpreted as varves driven by solar activity and later as tidali…
Adding further pieces to the synchronization puzzle: QBO, bimodality, and phase jumps
F. Stefani, G. M. Horstmann, G. Mamatsashvili +1
This work builds on a recently developed self-consistent synchronization model of the solar dynamo which attempts to explain Rieger-type periods, the Schwabe/Hale cycle and the Sue…
One-winged butterflies: mode selection for azimuthal magnetorotational instability by thermal convection
A. Mishra, G. Mamatsashvili, M. Seilmayer +1
The effects of thermal convection on turbulence in accretion discs, and particularly its interplay with the magnetorotational instability (MRI), are of significant astrophysical in…
Rieger, Schwabe, Suess-de Vries: The Sunny Beats of Resonance
F. Stefani, G. M. Horstmann, M. Klevs +2
We propose a self-consistent explanation of Rieger-type periodicities, the Schwabe cycle, and the Suess-de Vries cycle of the solar dynamo in terms of resonances of various wave ph…
Alfvén wave experiments with liquid rubidium in a pulsed magnetic field
Th. Gundrum, J. Forbriger, Th. Herrmannsdörfer +4
Magnetic fields are key ingredients for heating the solar corona to temperatures of several million Kelvin. A particularly important region with respect to this is the so-called ma…
Tidally Forced Planetary Waves in the Tachocline of Solar-like Stars
G. M. Horstmann, G. Mamatsashvili, A. Giesecke +2
Can atmospheric waves in planet-hosting solar-like stars substantially resonate to tidal forcing? Substantially at a level of impacting the space weather or even of being dynamo-re…
