Understanding the evolution of the complex magnetic fields found in solar active regions is an active area of research. There are numerous models for such fields which range in their complexity due to the number of known physical effects…

Magnetic helicity is approximately conserved in resistive MHD models. It quantifies the entanglement of the magnetic field within the plasma. The transport and removal of helicity is crucial in both the dynamo in the solar interior and…

Context. Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) launch highly energetic jets sometimes outshining their host galaxy. These jets are collimated outflows that have been accelerated near a supermassive black hole located at the centre of the galaxy.…
