Axisymmetric dynamo action is possible with anisotropic conductivity
A milestone of dynamo theory is Cowling's theorem, known in its modern form as the impossibility for an axisymmetric velocity field to generate an axisymmetric magnetic field by dynamo action.

Windows account for a significant proportion of the total energy lost in buildings. The interaction of window type, Window-to-Wall Ratio (WWR) scheduled and window placement height influence natural lighting and heat transfer through windows.

Duskside F-region dynamo currents: its relationship with prereversal enhancement of vertical plasma drift [PDF]
From magnetic field observations by CHAMP we estimate F-region dynamo current densities near the sunset terminator during solar maximum years from 2001 to 2002.

We describe the design and implementation of Dynamo, a software dynamic optimization system that is capable of transparently improving the performance of a native instruction stream as it executes on the processor. The input native instruction stream to Dynamo can be dynamically generated (by a JIT for example), or it can come from the execution of a ...

The initial temporal evolution of a feedback dynamo for Mercury
Various possibilities are currently under discussion to explain the observed weakness of the intrinsic magnetic field of planet Mercury. One of the possible dynamo scenarios is a dynamo with feedback from the magnetosphere. Due to its weak magnetic field

Parametric instability of the helical dynamo [PDF]
We study the dynamo threshold of a helical flow made of a mean (stationary) plus a fluctuating part. Two flow geometries are studied, either (i) solid body or (ii) smooth. Two well-known resonant dynamo conditions, elaborated for stationary helical flows

A simplified model of collision-driven dynamo action in small bodies
We investigate numerically the self-sustained dynamo action in a spinning sphere whose sense of rotation reverses periodically. This system serves as a simple model of a dynamo in small bodies powered by frequent collisions.

Kinematic dynamo action in a sphere. I. Effects of differential rotation and meridional circulation on solutions with axial dipole symmetry [PDF]
A sphere containing electrically conducting fluid can generate a magnetic field by dynamo action, provided the flow is sufficiently complicated and vigorous. The dynamo mechanism is thought to sustain magnetic fields in planets and stars.

Inverse pH Gradient-Assay for Facile Characterization of Proton-Antiporters in Xenopus Oocytes
Xenopus oocytes represent one of the most versatile model systems for characterizing the properties of membrane transporters. However, for studying proton-coupled antiporters, the use of Xenopus oocytes has so far been limited to so-called injection ...

In a metal, as in Earth's core, the thermal and electrical conductivities are assumed to be correlated. In a planetary dynamo this implies a contradiction: that both electrical conductivity, which makes it easier to induce current and magnetic field, and
