Magnetic filamentary structures in the ${\alpha}^{2}$ dynamo spectrum in plasmas
Abstract
Kinney et al [PPL \textbf{1},(1994)] have investigated plasma filamentary structure dynamics. More recently, Wilkin et al [Phys Rev Lett \textbf{99}:134501,(2007)] have shown that kinetic energy spectrum of magnetic structures in small-scale dynamos, are predominantly filamentary. Kirilov et al [PRE (2009)] have shown that use of the boundary values of the mean-field isotropic helical turbulent -dynamo, could determine the morphology of dynamo instability. In this paper, filamentary Frenet frame in diffusive media, displays the existence of kinematic chaotic dynamo in 3D Euclidean space . In 2D, either no dynamo action spectrum is found, in agreement with Cowling anti-dynamo theorem, or slow dynamos [PPL \textbf{15},(2008)]. Curvature and diffusion effects are encodded in the matrix representation of -dynamo operator. Instead of principal scalar curvatures and of the surface of structures, only one scalar curvature is needed to determine dynamos spectra. Filament thickness, increases with scalar curvature, as happens in solar physics.
