Connecting mean-field theory with dynamo simulations
Petri J. Käpylä
Mean-field dynamo theory, describing the evolution of large-scale magnetic fields, has been the mainstay of theoretical interpretation of magnetism in astrophysical objects such as…
Magnetorotational instability in a solar near-surface mean-field dynamo
Axel Brandenburg, Gustav Larsson, Fabio Del Sordo +1
We address the question whether the magnetorotational instability (MRI) can operate in the near-surface shear layer (NSSL) of the Sun and how it affects the interaction with the dy…
Helicity effect on turbulent passive and active scalar diffusivities
Axel Brandenburg, Petri J. Käpylä, Igor Rogachevskii +1
Turbulent flows are known to produce enhanced effective magnetic and passive scalar diffusivities, which can fairly accurately be determined with numerical methods. It is now known…
