Production of sunspots and their effects on the corona and solar wind: Insights from a new 3D flux-transport dynamo model

Rohit Kumar, Laurène Jouve, Rui F. Pinto +1

We present a three-dimensional numerical model for the generation and evolution of the magnetic field in the solar convection zone, in which sunspots are produced and contribute to…

Dynamo transition in a five-mode helical model

Rohit Kumar, Pankaj Wahi

We construct a five-mode helical dynamo model containing three velocity and two magnetic modes and solve it analytically. This model exhibits dynamo transition via supercritical pi…

Amplification of large-scale magnetic field in nonhelical magnetohydrodynamics

Rohit Kumar, Mahendra K. Verma

It is typically assumed that the kinetic and magnetic helicities play a crucial role in the growth of large-scale dynamo. In this paper we demonstrate that helicity is not essentia…

Energy transfers in dynamos with small magnetic Prandtl numbers

Rohit Kumar, Mahendra K. Verma, Ravi Samtaney

We perform numerical simulation of dynamo with magnetic Prandtl number on grid, and compute the energy fluxes and the shell-to-shell energy transfers. T…

Energy transfers and magnetic energy growth in small-scale dynamo

Rohit Kumar, Mahendra K. Verma, Ravi Samtaney

In this letter we investigate the dynamics of magnetic energy growth in small-scale dynamo by studying energy transfers, mainly energy fluxes and shell-to-shell energy transfers. W…
