Can the dynamo of spiral-arm galaxies be explained by anisotropic conductivity ?

Paul Gomez, Franck Plunian, Thierry Alboussière

The possibility of generating a magnetic field by dynamo effect with anisotropic electrical conductivity rather than turbulent flow has been demonstrated theoretically (Plunian & A…

Solid-liquid phase change in planetary cores

Ludovic Huguet, Quentin Kriaa, Thierry Alboussière +1

The ubiquitous phenomena of crystallization and melting occur in various geophysical contexts across many spatial and temporal scales. In particular, they take place in the iron co…

Upper bound of heat flux in an anelastic model for Rayleigh-Bénard convection

T. Alboussière, Y. Ricard, S. Labrosse

Bounds on heat transfer have been the subject of previous studies concerning convection in the Boussinesq approximation: in the Rayleigh-Bénard configuration, the first result obta…

Remarks on compressible convection in Super-Earths

Yanick Ricard, Thierry Alboussière

The radial density of planets increases with depth due to compressibility, leading to impacts on their convective dynamics. To account for these effects, including the presence of…

A playground for compressible natural convection with a nearly uniform density

Thierry Alboussiere, Jezabel Curbelo, Fabien Dubuffet +2

In the quest to understand the basic universal features of compressible convection, one would like to disentangle genuine consequences of compression from spatial variations of tra…

Fast and Furious dynamo action in the anisotropic dynamo

Franck Plunian, Thierry Alboussière

In the limit of large magnetic Reynolds numbers, it is shown that a smooth differential rotation can lead to fast dynamo action, provided that the electrical conductivity or magnet…
