The effects of flux transport on interface dynamos

J. Mason, D. W. Hughes, S. M. Tobias

摘要:

界面发电机的运行(如对太阳和其他具有对流包层的恒星所建议的那样)关键地依赖于两个空间上不相交的生成区域之间的磁通量的有效传输。在最简单的模型中,两个区域之间的通信仅通过扩散来实现。在这里,我们将一个高度简化的各向异性传输机制,以模拟磁泵和磁浮力的通量输送的净效应。我们调查的影响,这种机制的效率的运动发电机行动。结果表明,磁通输运对发电机效率的影响取决于磁通输运的空间分布。通常,运输阻碍发电机作用的开始,并增加发电机波的频率。然而,在某些情况下,存在一个优选的运输量,发电机的作用是最有效的。此外,我们证明了施加边界条件的重要性,得出结论的作用,运输。

英文摘要:

The operation of an interface dynamo (as has been suggested for the Sun and other stars with convective envelopes) relies crucially upon the effective transport of magnetic flux between two spatially disjoint generation regions. In the simplest models communication between the two regions is achieved solely by diffusion. Here we incorporate a highly simplified anisotropic transport mechanism in order to model the net effect of flux conveyance by magnetic pumping and by magnetic buoyancy. We investigate the influence of this mechanism on the efficiency of kinematic dynamo action. It is found that the effect of flux transport on the efficiency of the dynamo is dependent upon the spatial profile of the transport. Typically, transport hinders the onset of dynamo action and increases the frequency of the dynamo waves. However, in certain cases there exists a preferred magnitude of transport for which dynamo action is most efficient. Furthermore, we demonstrate the importance of the imposition of boundary conditions in drawing conclusions on the role of transport.
