Context: Large-scale magnetic fields resulting from hydromagnetic dynamo action may differ substantially in their time dependence. Cyclic field variations, characteristic for the solar magnetic field, are often explained by an important…
The problem of the dynamo effect for a Kraichnan incompressible helicity-free velocity field is considered. Exploiting a quantum formalism first introduced by Kazantsev (A.P. Kazantsev, Sov. Phys. JETP 26, 1031-1034 (1968)), we show that a…
Observations in polarized emission reveal the existence of large-scale coherent magnetic fields in a wide range of spiral galaxies. Radio-polarization data show that these fields are strongly inclined towards the radial direction, with…
The potential importance of magnetic fields during structure formation and gravitational collapse in the early Universe has been shown in several studies. In particular, magnetic field amplification by the small-scale dynamo plays an…
We investigate the structure of magnetic field amplified by turbulent velocity fluctuations, in the framework of the kinematic Kazantsev-Kraichnan model. We consider Kolmogorov distribution of velocity fluctuations, and assume that both…
We show that in decaying hydromagnetic turbulence with initial kinetic helicity, a weak magnetic field eventually becomes fully helical. The sign of magnetic helicity is opposite to that of the kinetic helicity - regardless of whether or…
We present nonlinear mean-field alpha-Omega dynamo simulations in spherical geometry with simplified profiles of kinematic alpha effect and shear. We take magnetic helicity evolution into account by solving a dynamical equation for the…
We consider the kinematic dynamo equations for a passive vector in $\mathcal{M} \times \mathbb{T} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{T}$ describing the evolution of a magnetic field with resistivity $\varepsilon>0$, that is transported…
In numerical studies of turbulence, hyperviscosity is often used as a tool to extend the inertial subrange and to reduce the dissipative subrange. By analogy, hyperdiffusivity (or hyperresistivity) is sometimes used in magnetohydrodynamics.…
The evolution of magnetic fields is studied using simulations of forced helical turbulence with strong imposed shear. After some initial exponential growth, the magnetic field develops a large scale travelling wave pattern. The resulting…
The study of dynamo action in astrophysical objects classically involves two timescales: the slow diffusive one and the fast advective one. We investigate the possibility of field amplification on an intermediate timescale associated with…
Understanding large scale magnetic field growth in turbulent plasmas in the magnetohydrodynamic limit is a goal of magnetic dynamo theory. In particular, assessing how well large scale helical field growth and saturation in simulations…
We investigate the influence of magnetic field amplification on the core-collapse supernovae in highly magnetized progenitors through three-dimensional simulations. By considering rotating models, we observe a strong correlation between the…
The existence of a weak galactic magnetic field has been repeatedly confirmed by observational data. The origin of this field has not as yet been explained in a fully satisfactory way and represents one of the main challenges of the…
We present a theory of large-scale dynamo action in a turbulent flow that has stochastic, zero-mean fluctuations of the $\alpha$ parameter. Particularly interesting is the possibility of the growth of the mean magnetic field due to Moffatt…
We study mean-field dynamo action in a background linear shear flow by employing pulsed renewing flows with fixed kinetic helicity and nonzero correlation time ($\tau$). We use plane shearing waves in terms of time-dependent exact solutions…
The emergence of a large scale magnetic field from randomly forced isotropic strongly helical flows is discussed in terms of the inverse cascade of magnetic helicity and the alpha-effect. In simulations of such flows the maximum field…
Choosing a simple class of flows, with characteristics that may be present in the Earth's core, we study the ability to generate a magnetic field when the flow is permitted to oscillate periodically in time. The flow characteristics are…
We reveal and analyze an efficient magnetic dynamo action due to precession-driven hydrodynamic turbulence in the local model of a precessional flow, focusing on the kinematic stage of this dynamo. The growth rate of magnetic field…
We present a numerical and analytical study of incompressible homogeneous conducting fluids using a helical Fourier representation. We analytically study both small- and large-scale dynamo properties, as well as the inverse cascade of…
