Solar Dynamo

open access: yes, 1999
A dynamo is a mechanism for a star or planet to create magnetic field. One type of solar dynamo is turbulent convection, which researchers have simulated on a supercomputer.

Discriminating between Babcock–Leighton-type Solar Dynamo Models by Torsional Oscillations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The details of the dynamo process in the Sun are an important aspect of research in solar-terrestrial physics and astrophysics. The surface part of the dynamo can be constrained by direct observations, but the subsurface part lacks direct observational ...

Neural differential equations for the solar dynamo

open access: yesPhysical Review E
Physical models aimed to reproduce basic features of the solar sunspot cycle are typically based on the solar dynamo mechanism. Usually qualitative arguments are used to define parameters of the model, among which a challenging component is the nonlinear form of quenching of the alpha-effect governing regeneration of the magnetic field.

Does the butterfly diagram indicate a solar flux-transport dynamo?

open access: yes, 2004
We address the question whether the properties of the observed latitude-time diagram of sunspot occurrence (the butterfly diagram) provide evidence for the operation of a flux-transport dynamo, which explains the migration of the sunspot zones and the ...

Solar dynamo models

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2008
Mean-field dynamo models and 3D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of global-scale solar convection provide complementary insights into the origins of cyclic magnetic activity in the Sun. One particular class of mean-field dynamo models, known as the Babcock-Leighton Flux-Transport (BL-FT) modeling approach, has enjoyed much success recently in ...

On the Origin of Long-term Modulation in the Sun’s Magnetic Activity Cycle

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
One of the most striking manifestations of orderly behavior emerging out of complex interactions in any astrophysical system is the 11 yr cycle of sunspots.

Solar Field Mapping and Dynamo Behavior

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2012
We discuss the importance of the Sun’s large-scale magnetic field to the Sun-Planetary environment. This paper narrows its focus down to the motion and evolution of the photospheric large-scale magnetic field which affects many environments throughout ...

LARGE-SCALE MAGNETIC AND VORTEX STRUCTURES IN A TURBULENT MEDIUM

open access: yesEast European Journal of Physics, 2016
The survey covers a main achievements in the field of dynamo theory. Applications of the model of turbulent convective dynamo to the problem of generation of a large-scale vortexes and magnetic structures in the solar photosphere are discussed ...

Tidal Control of Equatorial Vertical E × B Drift Under Solar Minimum Conditions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Observations show that equatorial ionospheric vertical drifts during solar minimum differ from the climatology between late afternoon and midnight. By analyzing WACCM‐X simulations, which reproduce this solar cycle dependence, we show that the interplay ...
