Three-Dimensional Simulations of Solar and Stellar Dynamos: The Influence of a Tachocline
M. S. Miesch, M. K. Browning, A. S. Brun +2
We review recent advances in modeling global-scale convection and dynamo processes with the Anelastic Spherical Harmonic (ASH) code. In particular, we have recently achieved the fi…
Rapidly Rotating Suns and Active Nests of Convection
Benjamin P. Brown, Matthew K. Browning, Allan Sacha Brun +2
In the solar convection zone, rotation couples with intensely turbulent convection to drive a strong differential rotation and achieve complex magnetic dynamo action. Our sun must…
Structure and Evolution of Giant Cells in Global Models of Solar Convection
Mark S. Miesch, Allan Sacha Brun, Marc L. Derosa +1
The global scales of solar convection are studied through three-dimensional simulations of compressible convection carried out in spherical shells of rotating fluid which extend fr…
Global-Scale Turbulent Convection and Magnetic Dynamo Action in the Solar Envelope
Allan Sacha Brun, Mark S. Miesch, Juri Toomre
The operation of the solar global dynamo appears to involve many dynamical elements. Self-consistent MHD simulations which realistically incorporate all of these processes are not…
Simulations of core convection in rotating A-type stars: Magnetic dynamo action
Allan Sacha Brun, Matthew K. Browning, Juri Toomre
Core convection and dynamo activity deep within rotating A-type stars of 2 solar masses are studied with 3--D nonlinear simulations. Our modeling considers the inner 30% by radius…
Simulations of core convection and resulting dynamo action in rotating A-type stars
Matthew Browning, Allan Sacha Brun, Juri Toomre
We present the results of 3--D nonlinear simulations of magnetic dynamo action by core convection within A-type stars of 2 solar masses, at a range of rotation rates. We consider t…
