Wave-driven dynamo action in spherical magnetohydrodynamic systems.
Hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic numerical studies of a mechanically forced two-vortex flow inside a sphere are reported. The simulations are performed in the intermediate regime between the laminar flow and developed turbulence, where a hydrodynamic instability is found to generate internal waves with a characteristic m=2 zonal wave number. It is shown that this time-periodic flow acts as ...

متن کاملSurface flux concentrations in a spherical α2 dynamo
Context. In the presence of strong density stratification, turbulence can lead to the large-scale instability of a horizontal magnetic field if its strength is in a suitable range (around a few percent of the turbulent equipartition value). This instability is related to a suppression of the turbulent pressure so that the turbulent contribution to the mean magnetic pressure becomes negative. Th...
متن کاملA Spherical Plasma Dynamo Experiment
We propose a plasma experiment to be used to investigate fundamental properties of astrophysical dynamos. The highly conducting, fast flowing plasma will allow experimenters to explore the high-magnetic-Reynolds-number regime. The plasma is confined using a ring-cusp strategy and subject to a toroidal differentially rotating outer boundary condition. As proof of principle, we present magnetohyd...
متن کاملA solar surface dynamo
Context. Observations indicate that the ‘quiet’ solar photosphere outside active regions contains considerable amounts of magnetic energy and magnetic flux, with mixed polarity on small scales. The origin of this flux is unclear. Aims. We test whether local dynamo action of the near-surface convection (granulation) can generate a significant contribution to the observed magnetic flux. Methods. ...
