Inverse cascade and symmetry breaking in rapidly-rotating Boussinesq convection
B. Favier, L. J. Silvers, M. R. E. Proctor
In this paper we present numerical simulations of rapidly-rotating Rayleigh-Bénard convection in the Boussinesq approximation with stress-free boundary conditions. At moderately lo…
Kinematic dynamo action in square and hexagonal patterns
B. Favier, M. R. E. Proctor
We consider kinematic dynamo action in rapidly rotating Boussinesq convection just above onset. The velocity is constrained to have either a square or a hexagonal pattern. For the…
Interactions between magnetohydrodynamic shear instabilities and convective flows in the solar interior
L. J. Silvers, P. J. Bushby, M. R. E. Proctor
Motivated by the interface model for the solar dynamo, this paper explores the complex magnetohydrodynamic interactions between convective flows and shear-driven instabilities. Ini…
Numerical demonstration of fluctuation dynamo at low magnetic Prandtl numbers
A. B. Iskakov, A. A. Schekochihin, S. C. Cowley +2
Direct numerical simulations of incompressible nonhelical randomly forced MHD turbulence are used to demonstrate for the first time that the fluctuation dynamo exists in the limit…
