What controls the magnetic geometry of M dwarfs?
T. Gastine, J. Morin, L. Duarte +3
Context: observations of rapidly rotating M dwarfs show a broad variety of large-scale magnetic fields encompassing dipole-dominated and multipolar geometries. In dynamo models, th…
Zonal flow regimes in rotating anelastic spherical shells: an application to giant planets
T. Gastine, J. Wicht, J. M. Aurnou
The surface zonal winds observed in the giant planets form a complex jet pattern with alternating prograde and retrograde direction. While the main equatorial band is prograde on t…
Dipolar versus multipolar dynamos: the influence of the background density stratification
T. Gastine, L. Duarte, J. Wicht
Context: dynamo action in giant planets and rapidly rotating stars leads to a broad variety of magnetic field geometries including small scale multipolar and large scale dipole-dom…
Effects of compressibility on driving zonal flow in gas giants
T. Gastine, J. Wicht
The banded structures observed on the surfaces of the gas giants are associated with strong zonal winds alternating in direction with latitude. We use three-dimensional numerical s…
