Magnetic energy spectrum produced by turbulent dynamo: Effect of time irreversibility

نویسندگان

چکیده

We consider the kinematic stage of evolution magnetic field advected by turbulent hydrodynamic flow. use a generalization Kazantsev-Kraichnan model to investigate time irreversible flows. In viscous range scales, infinite-time limit spectrum is power law but its slope more flat than that predicted Kazantsev model. This result agrees with numerical simulations. The rate energy growth slower in time-symmetric case. show for high Prandtl plasma, formation power-law shape takes very long and may never happen because nonlinearity. propose another ansatz describe at finite time.

Effect of Fractional Kinetic Helicity on Turbulent Magnetic Dynamo Spectra

Magnetic field amplification in astrophysics ultimately requires an understanding of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Kinetic helicity has long been known to be important for large scale field growth in forced MHD turbulence, and has been recently demonstrated numerically to be asymptotically consistent with slow mean field dynamo action in a periodic box. Here we show numerically that the magne...

Magnetic arms in NGC 6946 generated by a turbulent dynamo

Dynamo models for the structure of the regular magnetic field in the galaxy NGC 6946 are confronted with recent observations of polarized radio emission at λ3.5 cm. The observed behaviour of the concentration of regular fields between the gaseous spiral arms (“magnetic spiral arms”) is achieved via a non-axisymmetric azimuthal distribution of only the correlation time τcorr of interstellar turb...

Magnetic structures produced by the small-scale dynamo.

Small-scale dynamo action has been obtained for a flow previously used to model fluid turbulence, where the sensitivity of the magnetic field parameters to the kinetic energy spectrum can be explored. We apply quantitative morphology diagnostics, based on the Minkowski functionals, to magnetic fields produced by the kinematic small-scale dynamo to show that magnetic structures are predominantly...

Stochastic Analysis of Subcritical Amplification of Magnetic Energy in a Turbulent Dynamo

We present and analyze a simplified stochastic αΩ−dynamo model which is designed to assess the influence of additive and multiplicative noises, non-normality of dynamo equation, and nonlinearity of the α−effect and turbulent diffusivity, on the generation of a large-scale magnetic field in the subcritical case. Our model incorporates random fluctuations in the α−parameter and additive noise ari...

Non-normal and stochastic amplification of magnetic energy in the turbulent dynamo: subcritical case.

Our attention focuses on the stochastic dynamo equation with non-normal operator that gives an insight into the role of stochastics and non-normality in magnetic field generation. The main point of this Brief Report is a discussion of the generation of a large-scale magnetic field that cannot be explained by traditional linear eigenvalue analysis. The main result is a discovery of nonlinear det...
