We study a new type of large-scale instability, which arises in obliquely rotating stratified electroconductive fluid with an external uniform magnetic field and a small-scale external force having zero helicity. This force gives rise to…
We investigate the Lagrangian mechanism of the kinematic ``fluctuation'' magnetic dynamo in turbulent plasma flow at small magnetic Prandtl numbers. The combined effect of turbulent advection and plasma resistivity is to carry infinitely…
The growth and saturation of magnetic field in conducting turbulent media with large magnetic Prandtl numbers are investigated. This regime is very common in low-density hot astrophysical plasmas. During the early (kinematic) stage, weak…
A non-linear, time-dependent, magnetically driven dynamo theory which shows how magnetically dominated configurations can relax to become helical on the largest scale available is presented. Coupled time-dependent differential equations for…
The small-scale turbulent dynamo is a key mechanism for amplifying galactic magnetic fields, yet the resulting field morphology remains poorly understood. Using 3D driven turbulence simulations across a range of compressibilities,…
We demonstrate that a magneto-convection simulation incorporating essential physical processes governing solar surface convection exhibits turbulent small-scale dynamo action. By presenting a derivation of the energy balance equation and…
Using direct numerical simulations of the equations of magnetohydrodynamics, we study reversals of the magnetic field generated by the flow of an electrically conducting fluid in a sphere. We show that at low magnetic Prandtl numbers,…
The dynamo instability is investigated in the limit of infinite magnetic Prandtl number. In this limit the fluid is assumed to be very viscous so that the inertial terms can be neglected and the flow is slaved to the forcing. The forcing…
Turbulent dynamo theories have faced difficulties in obtaining evolution of large-scale magnetic fields on short dynamical time-scales due to the constraint imposed by magnetic helicity balance. This has critical implications for…
The conventional theory of small-scale magnetic field generation in a turbulent flow considers time-reversible random flows. However, real turbulent flows are known to be time irreversible: the presence of energy cascade is an intrinsic…
(Abridged) The small-scale dynamo may play a substantial role in magnetizing the Universe under a large range of conditions, including subsonic turbulence at low Mach numbers, highly supersonic turbulence at high Mach numbers and a large…
We investigate properties of the scale dependence and cross-scale transfer of kinetic energy in compressible three-dimensional hydrodynamic turbulence, by means of two direct numerical simulations of decaying turbulence with initial Mach…
We show that the dissipation of small-scale perturbations through diffusion damping after neutrino decoupling lowers the present-day neutrino temperature compared to the expected value of $1.96\,{\text{K}}$. This reduces the relic neutrino…
Many astrophysical small-scale dynamos (SSDs) amplify weak magnetic fields via highly compressible, supersonic turbulence, but established SSD theories have overlooked these compressible effects. To address this, we perform visco-resistive…
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…
We study dynamo action using numerical simulations of planar Boussinesq convection at rapid rotation (low Ekman numbers, Ek), focusing on subcritical dynamo action in which the dynamo is sustained for Rayleigh numbers, Ra, below the…
Is the scaling, \lambda \sim Rm^{1/2}, for the growth rate of small-scale dynamo instability at low magnetic Prandtl numbers and large magnetic Reynolds numbers, Rm, valid in the vicinity of the threshold? Our analysis and even numerical…
(abidged) Context: Stellar convection zones are characterized by vigorous high-Reynolds number turbulence at low Prandtl numbers. Aims: We study the dynamo and differential rotation regimes at varying levels of viscous, thermal, and…
In this letter we investigate the dynamics of magnetic energy growth in small-scale dynamo by studying energy transfers, mainly energy fluxes and shell-to-shell energy transfers. We perform dynamo simulations for magnetic Prandtl number…
We numerically investigate the efficiency of a spherical Couette flow at generating a self-sustained magnetic field. No dynamo action occurs for axisymmetric flow while we always found a dynamo when non-axisymmetric hydrodynamical…
