The magnetic shear-current effect: generation of large-scale magnetic fields by the small-scale dynamo
Jonathan Squire, Amitava Bhattacharjee
A novel large-scale dynamo mechanism, the magnetic shear-current effect, is discussed and explored. The effect relies on the interaction of magnetic fluctuations with a mean shear…

Coherent nonhelical shear dynamos driven by magnetic fluctuations at low Reynolds numbers
Jonathan Squire, Amitava Bhattacharjee
Nonhelical shear dynamos are studied with a particular focus on the possibility of coherent dynamo action. The primary results -- serving as a follow up to the results of Squire &…

Generation of large-scale magnetic fields by small-scale dynamo in shear flows
Jonathan Squire, Amitava Bhattacharjee
We propose a new mechanism for turbulent mean-field dynamo in which the magnetic fluctuations resulting from a small-scale dynamo drive the generation of large-scale magnetic field…
