Strong mean field dynamos require supercritical helicity fluxes
Axel Brandenburg, Kandaswamy Subramanian
Several one and two dimensional mean field models are analyzed where the effects of current helicity fluxes and boundaries are included within the framework of the dynamical quench…
Uni-directional polymerization leading to homochirality in the RNA world
M. Nilsson, A. Brandenburg, A. C. Andersen +1
The differences between uni-directional and bi-directional polymerization are considered. The uni-directional case is discussed in the framework of the RNA world. Similar to earlie…
Minimal tau approximation and simulations of the alpha effect
A. Brandenburg, K. Subramanian
The validity of a closure called the minimal tau approximation (MTA), is tested in the context of dynamo theory, wherein triple correlations are assumed to provide relaxation of th…
Stellar dynamo driven wind braking instead of disc coupling
Brigitta von Rekowski, Axel Brandenburg
Star-disc coupling is considered in numerical models where the stellar field is not an imposed perfect dipole, but instead a more irregular self-adjusting dynamo-generated field. U…
Radiative transfer in decomposed domains
T. Heinemann, W. Dobler, A. Nordlund +1
An efficient algorithm for calculating radiative transfer on massively parallel computers using domain decomposition is presented. The integral formulation of the transfer equation…
The case for a distributed solar dynamo shaped by near-surface shear
Axel Brandenburg
Arguments for and against the widely accepted picture of a solar dynamo being seated in the tachocline are reviewed and alternative ideas concerning dynamos operating in the bulk o…
