Large-scale dynamos in rapidly rotating plane layer convection
P. J. Bushby, P. J. Käpylä, Y. Masada +4
Context: Convectively-driven flows play a crucial role in the dynamo processes that are responsible for producing magnetic activity in stars and planets. It is still not fully unde…

On the problem of large-scale magnetic field generation in rotating compressible convection
Benjamin Favier, Paul J. Bushby
Mean-field dynamo theory suggests that turbulent convection in a rotating layer of electrically-conducting fluid produces a significant alpha-effect, which is one of the key ingred…

How can large-scale twisted magnetic structures naturally emerge from buoyancy instabilities?
B. F. N. Favier, L. Jouve, W. Edmunds +2
We consider the three-dimensional instability of a layer of horizontal magnetic field in a polytropic atmosphere where, contrary to previous studies, the field lines in the initial…
