Constraining the outer boundary condition for the Babcock-Leighton dynamo models
Yukun Luo, Jie Jiang, Binghang Li +2
The evolution of the Sun's large-scale surface magnetic field is well captured by surface flux transport models, which can therefore provide a natural constraint on the outer bound…

Minimal Roles of Solar Subsurface Meridional Flow in the distributed-shear Babcock-Leighton Dynamo
Jie Jiang, Zebin Zhang
The subsurface meridional flow has long been recognized as a critical factor in driving the solar cycle. Specifically, the equatorward return flow in the tachocline is widely belie…
