Tayler instability and dynamo action of cylindric magnetic rings
Günther Rüdiger, Manfred Schultz
The Tayler instability of an azimuthal magnetic field with one or two ``rings'' along the radius is studied for an axially unbounded Taylor-Couette flow. The rotation law of the co…
The gap-size influence on the excitation of magnetorotational instability in cylindrical Couette flows
G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz
The excitation conditions of the magnetorotational instability are studied for axially unbounded Taylor-Couette flows of various gap widths between the cylinders. The cylinders are…
On the toroidal-velocity anti-dynamo theorem under the presence of nonuniform electric conductivity
G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz
Laminar electrically conducting Couette flows with the hydrodynamically stable quasi-Keplerian rotation profile and non-uniform conductivity are probed for dynamo instability. In s…
Destabilization of super-rotating Taylor-Couette flows by current-free helical magnetic fields
G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz, R. Hollerbach
In an earlier paper we showed that the combination of azimuthal magnetic fields and super-rotation in Taylor-Couette flows of conducting fluids can be unstable against non-axisymme…
Large-scale dynamo action of magnetized Taylor-Couette flows
G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz
A conducting Taylor-Couette flow with quasi-Keplerian rotation law containing a toroidal magnetic field serves as a mean-field dynamo model of the Tayler-Spruit-type. The flows are…
Non-diffusive angular momentum transport in rotating -pinches
G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz
The stability of conducting Taylor-Couette flows under the presence of toroidal magnetic background fields is considered. For strong enough magnetic amplitudes such magnetohydrodyn…
