没有阿尔法效应的平流太阳能发电机

An advective solar-type dynamo without the alpha effect

N. Seehafer, V. V. Pipin

摘要:

内容:大多数太阳和恒星发电机模型使用阿尔法-欧米茄方案,其中磁场是由差异旋转(欧米茄效应)和螺旋湍流对流(阿尔法效应)引起的平均电动势之间的相互作用产生的。然而,有湍流发电机mechanisms,可以补充的α效应或可能是一个替代it. Aims:我们调查模型的太阳能型发电机的α效应是完全取代其他两个湍流发电机机制,即欧米茄X J效应和剪切电流效应,这两个结果从平均磁场的不均匀性。研究方法:我们研究了轴对称平均场发电机模型,包含差分旋转,欧米茄X J和剪切电流的影响,和一个双曲环流。模型计算是利用从日震测量中获得的太阳自转剖面和根据太阳内部标准模型获得的其他量的径向剖面进行的。结果:在没有纬向流的情况下,模型与太阳观测值不能取得满意的一致。然而,包括一个足够强的纬向环流,大规模的太阳磁场的主要属性,即它的振荡行为,它的纬向漂移向赤道内的每半个周期,和它的偶极宇称相对于赤道平面,正确地再现。结论:我们由此构建了第一个不使用α效应的太阳能发电机的平均场模型。

英文摘要:

Context: Most solar and stellar dynamo models use the alpha-Omega scenario where the magnetic field is generated by the interplay between differential rotation (the Omega effect) and a mean electromotive force due to helical turbulent convection flows (the alpha effect). There are, however, turbulent dynamo mechnisms that may complement the alpha effect or may be an alternative to it. Aims: We investigate models of solar-type dynamos where the alpha effect is completely replaced by two other turbulent dynamo mechanisms, namely the Omega x J effect and the shear-current effect, which both result from an inhomogeneity of the mean magnetic field. Methods: We studied axisymmetric mean-field dynamo models containing differential rotation, the Omega x J and shear-current effects, and a meridional circulation. The model calculations were carried out using the rotation profile of the Sun as obtained from helioseismic measurements and radial profiles of other quantities according to a standard model of the solar interior. Results: Without meridional flow, no satisfactory agreement of the models with the solar observations can be obtained. With a sufficiently strong meridional circulation included, however, the main properties of the large-scale solar magnetic field, namely, its oscillatory behavior, its latitudinal drift towards the equator within each half cycle, and its dipolar parity with respect to the equatorial plane, are correctly reproduced. Conclusions: We have thereby constructed the first mean-field models of solar-type dynamos that do not use the alpha effect.
