Regimes of thermo-compositional convection and related dynamos in rotating spherical shells
James F. Mather, Radostin D. Simitev
Convection and magnetic field generation in the Earth and planetary interiors are driven by both thermal and compositional gradients. In this work numerical simulations of finite-a…

The onset of thermo-compositional convection in rotating spherical shells
Luis Silva, James F. Mather, Radostin D. Simitev
Double-diffusive convection driven by both thermal and compositional buoyancy in a rotating spherical shell can exhibit a rather large number of behaviours often distinct from that…
