Magnetic induction in a turbulent flow of liquid sodium: mean behaviour and slow fluctuations
F. Ravelet, R. Volk, A. Chiffaudel +10
We study the flow response to an externally imposed homogeneous magnetic field in a turbulent swirling flow of liquid sodium -- the VKS2 experiment in which magnetic Reynolds numbe…

Magnetic field reversals in an experimental turbulent dynamo
M. Berhanu, R. Monchaux, S. Fauve +11
We report the first experimental observation of reversals of a dynamo field generated in a laboratory experiment based on a turbulent flow of liquid sodium. The magnetic field rand…

Generation of magnetic field by dynamo action in a turbulent flow of liquid sodium
R. Monchaux, M. Berhanu, M. Bourgoin +13
We report the observation of dynamo action in the VKS experiment, i.e., the generation of magnetic field by a strongly turbulent swirling flow of liquid sodium. Both mean and fluct…
