Internal heating in rapidly rotating convection is not a shortcut to geostrophic turbulence
Justin A. Nicoski, Tobias G. Oliver, Stefano Maffei +1
Convective turbulence in planets and stars is often driven by internal heating. This forcing mechanism has also been proposed as a means of accessing the diffusion-free scalings of…

Asymptotics of spherical dynamos exhibiting a small-scale MAC balance
Justin A. Nicoski, Andy Esseln, Chris Davies +1
Understanding the asymptotic behaviour of numerical dynamo models is critical for extrapolating results to the physical conditions that characterise terrestrial planetary cores. He…

Quasi-static magnetoconvection with a tilted magnetic field
Justin A. Nicoski, Ming Yan, Michael A. Calkins
A numerical study of convection with stress-free boundary conditions in the presence of an imposed magnetic field that is tilted with respect to the direction of gravity is carried…
