Can we look inside a dynamo?
For a simple spherically symmetric mean-field dynamo model we investigate the possibility of determining the radial dependence of the coefficient α. Growth rates for different magnetic field modes are assumed to be known by measurement. An evolutionary strategy (ES) is used for the solution of the inverse problem. Numerically, we find quite different α-profiles giving nearly the same eigenvalue...
