In the past few years suggestions have emerged that the solar magnetic field might have a bi-helical component with oppositely polarized magnetic fields at large and small scales, and that the shedding of such fields may be crucial for the…

Magnetic fields generated in the early Universe undergo turbulent decay during the radiation-dominated era. The decay is governed by a decay exponent and a decay time. It has been argued that the latter is prolonged by magnetic…
We analyze the decay of spin waves into Stoner excitations in magnetic Weyl semimetals. The lifetime of a mode is found to have a universal dependence on its frequency and momentum, and on a few parameters that characterize the relativistic…
