Current helicity constraints in solar dynamo models

D. Sokoloff, H. Zhang, D. Moss +5

We investigate to what extent the current helicity distribution observed in solar active regions is compatible with solar dynamo models. We use an advanced 2D mean-field dynamo mod…

Reversals of the solar dipole

David Moss, Leonid L. Kitchatinov, Dmitri Sokoloff

During a solar magnetic field reversal the magnetic dipole moment does not vanish, but migrates between poles, in contradiction to the predictions of mean-field dynamo theory. We t…

Solar Grand Minima and random fluctuations in dynamo parameters

D. Moss, D. Sokoloff, I. Usoskin +1

We consider to what extent the long-term dynamics of cyclic solar activity in the form of Grand Minima can be associated with random fluctuations of the parameters governing the so…

The helicity constraint in spherical shell dynamos

A. Brandenburg, P. J. Käpylä, D. Mitra +2

The motivation for considering distributed large scale dynamos in the solar context is reviewed in connection with the magnetic helicity constraint. Preliminary accounts of 3-dimen…

Dynamo models and differential rotation in late-type rapidly rotating stars

E. Covas, D. Moss, R. Tavakol

Increasing evidence is becoming available about not only the surface differential rotation of rapidly rotating cool stars but, in a small number of cases, also about temporal varia…

Helicity Balance and Steady-State Strength of the Dynamo Generated Galactic Magnetic Field

N. Kleeorin, D. Moss, I. Rogachevskii +1

We demonstrate that the inclusion of the helicity flux in the magnetic helicity balance in the nonlinear stage of galactic dynamo action results in a radical change in the magnetic…
