Eye Formation in Rotating Convection
L. Oruba, P. A. Davidson, E. Dormy
We consider rotating convection in a shallow, cylindrical domain. We examine the conditions under which the resulting vortex develops an eye at its core; that is, a region where th…

The Dynamics and Scaling Laws of Planetary Dynamos Driven by Inertial Waves
P A Davidson
The numerical simulations of planetary dynamos still operate in a regime very far from the planets. For example, it seems unlikely that viscous forces are at all significant in pla…

Scaling Laws for Planetary Dynamos
P. A. Davidson
We propose new scaling laws for the properties of planetary dynamos. In particular, the Rossby number, the magnetic Reynolds number, the ratio of magnetic to kinetic energy, the Oh…
