Convection-driven kinematic dynamos at low Rossby and magnetic Prandtl numbers
Michael A. Calkins, Louie Long, David Nieves +2
Most large-scale planetary magnetic fields are thought to be driven by low Rossby number convection of a low magnetic Prandtl number fluid. Here kinematic dynamo action is investig…

The Breakdown of the Anelastic Approximation in Rotating Compressible Convection: Implications for Astrophysical Systems
Michael A. Calkins, Keith Julien, Philippe Marti
The linear theory for rotating compressible convection in a plane layer geometry is presented for the astrophysically-relevant case of low Prandtl number gases. When the rotation r…
