Waves, Coriolis force and the dynamo effect
S. M. Mahajan, P. D. Mininni, D. O. Gómez
Dynamo activity caused by waves in a rotating magneto-plasma is investigated. In astrophysical environments such as accretion disks and at sufficiently small spatial scales, the Ha…
Direct simulations of helical Hall-MHD turbulence and dynamo action
P. D. Mininni, D. O. Gómez, S. M. Mahajan
Direct numerical simulations of turbulent Hall dynamos are presented. The evolution of an initially weak and small scale magnetic field in a system maintained in a stationary turbu…
Electrostatic Decay of Plasma Turbulence
Alberto M. Vasquez, Daniel O. Gomez
The study of the evolution of a suprathermal electron beam traveling through a background plasma is relevant for the physics of solar flares and their associated type III solar rad…
Energy spectrum of turbulent fluctuations in boundary driven reduced magnetohydrodynamics
Pablo Dmitruk, Daniel O. Gomez, William H. Matthaeus
The nonlinear dynamics of a bundle of magnetic flux ropes driven by stationary fluid motions at their endpoints is studied, by performing numerical simulations of the magnetohydrod…
