Nonlocal dynamo waves in a turbulent shear flow
Abstract. The turbulent dynamo action in a shear flow is considered by making use of a quasilinear approximation and neglecting the back-reaction of a generated magnetic field on turbulence. The shear can stretch turbulent magnetic field lines in such a way that turbulent motions may become suitable for the generation of a large-scale magnetic field even in the absence of any stratification. Th...
متن کاملDestabilizing effect of dynamical friction on fast-particle-driven waves in a near-threshold nonlinear regime.
The nonlinear evolution of waves excited by the resonant interaction with energetic particles, just above the instability threshold, is shown to depend on the type of relaxation process that restores the unstable distribution function. When dynamical friction dominates over diffusion in the phase space region surrounding the wave-particle resonance, an explosive evolution of the wave is found t...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Periodic Fully Nonlinear Potential Waves
An exact numerical scheme for a long-term simulation of three-dimensional potential fully-nonlinear periodic gravity waves is suggested. The scheme is based on a surfacefollowing non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system and does not use the technique based on expansion of the velocity potential. The Poisson equation for the velocity potential is solved iteratively. The Fourier transform met...
متن کاملThe Nonlinear Turbulent Dynamo
We simulate the evolution of an initially weak magnetic field in forced turbulence for a range of Prandtl numbers. The field grows exponentially with the Kulsrud-Anderson k 3/2 spectrum until the magnetic energy approaches the viscous-scale kinetic energy, where the magnetic forces then backreact on the velocity. Further growth proceeds more slowly until a saturated state is reached where the m...
متن کاملSolitary dynamo waves
Long dynamo waves are a characteristic feature of interface dynamo models with spatially localized α and Ω effects. The evolution of such waves is described by the modified Korteweg–de Vries equation. Solutions to this equation take the form of solitary waves, breathers, and snoidal and cnoidal waves, and represent nonlinear waves of magnetic activity that migrate towards the equator, as observ...
