Acoustic spectra of a gas-filled rotating spheroid

Sylvie Su, David Cébron, Henri-Claude Nataf +4

The acoustic spectrum of a gas-filled resonating cavity can be used to indirectly probe its internal velocity field. This unconventional velocimetry method is particularly interest…

Multiple zonal jets and convective heat transport barriers in a quasi-geostrophic model of planetary cores

Céline Guervilly, Philippe Cardin

We study rapidly-rotating Boussinesq convection driven by internal heating in a full sphere. We use a numerical model based on the quasi-geostrophic approximation for the velocity…

Subcritical convection of liquid metals in a rotating sphere using a quasi-geostrophic model

Celine Guervilly, Philippe Cardin

We study nonlinear convection in a rapidly rotating sphere with internal heating for values of the Prandtl number relevant for liquid metals (). We use a nu…

Experimental evidence of Alfvén wave propagation in a Gallium alloy

Thierry Alboussiere, Philippe Cardin, François Debray +5

Experiments with a liquid metal alloy, galinstan, are reported and show clear evidence of Alfvén wave propagation as well as resonance of Alfvén modes. Galinstan is liquid at room…

Quasi-geostrophic model of the instabilities of the Stewartson layer

Nathanael Schaeffer, Philippe Cardin

We study the destabilization of a shear layer, produced by differential rotation of a rotating axisymmetric container. For small forcing, this produces a shear layer, which has bee…
