Interaction of large- and small-scale dynamos in isotropic turbulent flows from GPU-accelerated simulations

Miikka S. Väisälä, Johannes Pekkilä, Maarit J. Käpylä +3

Magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) dynamos emerge in many different astrophysical situations where turbulence is present, but the interaction between large-scale (LSD) and small-scale dyn…

Small-Scale Dynamo in Supernova-Driven Interstellar Turbulence

Frederick A. Gent, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Maarit J. Kapyla +1

Magnetic fields grow quickly even at early cosmological times, suggesting the action of a small-scale dynamo (SSD) in the interstellar medium of galaxies. Many studies have focused…

The Pencil Code, a modular MPI code for partial differential equations and particles: multipurpose and multiuser-maintained

A. Brandenburg, A. Johansen, P. A. Bourdin +34

The Pencil Code is a highly modular physics-oriented simulation code that can be adapted to a wide range of applications. It is primarily designed to solve partial differential equ…

Common dynamo scaling in slowly rotating young and evolved stars

Jyri J. Lehtinen, Federico Spada, Maarit J. Käpylä +2

One interpretation of the activity and magnetism of late-type stars is that these both intensify with decreasing Rossby number up to a saturation level, suggesting that stellar dyn…

Helicity proxies from linear polarisation of solar active regions

A. Prabhu, A. Brandenburg, M. J. Käpylä +1

The alpha effect is believed to play a key role in the generation of the solar magnetic field. A fundamental test for its significance in the solar dynamo is to look for magnetic h…
