Double-diffusive instabilities of a shear-generated magnetic layer
Lara J. Silvers, Geoffrey M. Vasil, Nicholas H. Brummell +1
Previous theoretical work has speculated about the existence of double-diffusive magnetic buoyancy instabilities of a dynamically evolving horizontal magnetic layer generated by th…
Three-Layer Magnetoconvection
M. -K. Lin, L. J. Silvers, M. R. E. Proctor
It is believed that some stars have two or more convection zones in close proximity near to the stellar photosphere. These zones are separated by convectively stable regions that a…
Large-scale Dynamo Action Driven by Velocity Shear and Rotating Convection
David W. Hughes, Michael R. E. Proctor
By incorporating a large-scale shear flow into turbulent rotating convection, we show that a sufficiently strong shear can promote dynamo action in flows that in the absence of she…
A self-sustaining nonlinear dynamo process in Keplerian shear flows
F. Rincon, G. I. Ogilvie, M. R. E. Proctor
A three-dimensional nonlinear dynamo process is identified in rotating plane Couette flow in the Keplerian regime. It is analogous to the hydrodynamic self-sustaining process in no…
