Turbulent processes and mean-field dynamo
Axel Brandenburg, Detlef Elstner, Youhei Masada +1
Mean-field dynamo theory has important applications in solar physics and galactic magnetism. We discuss some of the many turbulence effects relevant to the generation of large-scal…
Alpha tensor and dynamo excitation in turbulent fluids with anisotropic conductivity fluctuations
Oliver Gressel, Günther Rüdiger, Detlef Elstner
A mean-field theory of the electrodynamics of a turbulent fluid is formulated under the assumption that the molecular electric conductivity is correlated with the turbulent velocit…
On the Combined Role of Cosmic Rays and Supernova-Driven Turbulence for Galactic Dynamos
Abhijit B. Bendre, Detlef Elstner, Oliver Gressel
Large-scale coherent magnetic fields observed in the nearby galaxies are thought to originate by a mean-field dynamo. This is governed via the turbulent electromotive force (EMF, $…
Various scenarios for the equatorward migration of sunspots
Detlef Elstner, Yori Fournier, Rainer Arlt
The profile of the differential rotation together with the sign of the alpha-effect determine the dynamo wave direction. In early models of the solar dynamo the dynamo wave often l…
On the spatial and temporal non-locality of dynamo mean-field effects in supersonic interstellar turbulence
Oliver Gressel, Detlef Elstner
The interstellar medium of the Milky Way and nearby disk galaxies harbours large-scale coherent magnetic fields of Microgauss strength, that can be explained via the action of a me…
Turbulent transport coefficients in galactic dynamo simulations using singular value decomposition
Abhijit B. Bendre, Kandaswamy Subramanian, Detlef Elstner +1
Coherent magnetic fields in disc galaxies are thought to be generated by a large-scale (or mean-field) dynamo operating in their interstellar medium. A key driver of mean magnetic…
