扩散率猝灭在磁通输运发电机模型中的作用

The role of diffusivity quenching in flux-transport dynamo models

G. A. Guerrero, M. Dikpati, E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino

摘要:

在发电机过程的非线性阶段中,磁场对湍流运动的反作用导致湍流水平的降低,并因此抑制磁场放大(α-猝灭效应)和湍流磁扩散率(η-猝灭效应)。虽然前者已被广泛探讨,在磁场演变的eta淬火的影响很少被考虑。在这项工作中,我们调查的作用,抑制扩散的通量传输太阳发电机模型,也包括一个非线性α淬火长期。我们的研究结果表明,虽然α-淬火的磁场放大与淬火因子的依赖关系是近线性的,磁场响应η-淬火是非线性和空间不均匀的。我们已经发现,在这种情况下,磁场可以局部放大,形成长寿命的结构,其最大振幅可以高达~2.5倍以上的速跃层和高达~2倍以上的对流区中心比在没有淬火的模型。然而,这种放大导致不可观察的效应和蝶形图中磁场的更差分布。由于发电机循环周期增加时,淬火的效率增加,我们还探讨了η-淬火是否可以导致扩散为主的模型漂移到对流为主的制度。我们已经发现,模型经历了一个大的抑制扩散产生强烈的隔离的磁场,可能会导致不稳定的dynamo-oscillations。另一方面,一个最初的扩散主导的模型经历了一个小的抑制在eta仍然在扩散主导的制度。

英文摘要:

In the non-linear phase of a dynamo process, the back-reaction of the magnetic field upon the turbulent motion results in a decrease of the turbulence level and therefore in a suppression of both the magnetic field amplification (the alpha-quenching effect) and the turbulent magnetic diffusivity (the eta-quenching effect). While the former has been widely explored, the effects of eta-quenching in the magnetic field evolution have rarely been considered. In this work we investigate the role of the suppression of diffusivity in a flux-transport solar dynamo model that also includes a non-linear alpha-quenching term. Our results indicate that, although for alpha-quenching the dependence of the magnetic field amplification with the quenching factor is nearly linear, the magnetic field response to eta-quenching is non-linear and spatially non-uniform. We have found that the magnetic field can be locally amplified in this case, forming long-lived structures whose maximum amplitude can be up to ~2.5 times larger at the tachocline and up to ~2 times larger at the center of the convection zone than in models without quenching. However, this amplification leads to unobservable effects and to a worse distribution of the magnetic field in the butterfly diagram. Since the dynamo cycle period increases when the efficiency of the quenching increases, we have also explored whether the eta-quenching can cause a diffusion-dominated model to drift into an advection-dominated regime. We have found that models undergoing a large suppression of the diffusivity produce a strong segregation of magnetic fields that may lead to unsteady dynamo-oscillations. On the other hand, an initially diffusion-dominated model undergoing a small suppression in eta remains in the diffusion-dominated regime.
