Magnetic Helicity Density and Its Flux in Weakly Inhomogeneous Turbulence
A gauge-invariant and hence physically meaningful definition of magnetic helicity density for random fields is proposed, using the Gauss linking formula, as the density of correlated field line linkages. This definition is applied to the random small-scale field in weakly inhomogeneous turbulence, whose correlation length is small compared with the scale on which the turbulence varies. For inho...
متن کاملPhotospheric processes and magnetic flux tubes
New high-resolution observations reveal that small-scale magnetic flux concentrations have a delicate substructure on a spatial scale of 0.1′′. Their basic structure can be interpreted in terms of a magnetic flux sheet or tube that vertically extends through the ambient weak-field or fieldfree atmosphere with which it is in mechanical equilibrium. A more refined interpretation comes from new th...
متن کاملTurbulent dynamos with advective magnetic helicity flux
Many astrophysical bodies harbour magnetic fields that are thought to be sustained by a dynamo process. However, it has been argued that the production of large-scale magnetic fields by meanfield dynamo action is strongly suppressed at large magnetic Reynolds numbers owing to the conservation of magnetic helicity. This phenomenon is known as catastrophic quenching. Advection of magnetic fields ...
متن کاملPhotospheric and Subphotospheric Dynamics of Emerging Magnetic Flux
Magnetic fields emerging from the Sun’s interior carry information about physical processes of magnetic field generation and transport in the convection zone. Soon after appearance on the solar surface the magnetic flux gets concentrated in sunspot regions and causes numerous active phenomena on the Sun. This paper discusses some properties of the emerging magnetic flux observed on the solar su...
متن کاملInjection of Magnetic Energy and Magnetic Helicity into the Solar Atmosphere by an Emerging Magnetic Flux Tube
We present a detailed investigation of the dynamical behavior of emerging magnetic flux using 3dimensional MHD numerical simulation. A magnetic flux tube with a lefthanded twist, initially placed below the photosphere, emerges into the solar atmosphere. This leads to a dynamical expansion of emerging field lines as well as an injection of magnetic energy and magnetic helicity into the atmospher...
