Deep magnetic field stretching in numerical dynamos

Deep magnetic field stretching in numerical dynamos

Abstract The process of magnetic field stretching transfers kinetic energy to magnetic energy and thereby maintains dynamos against ohmic dissipation. Stretching at depth may play an important role in shaping the field morphology and in the dynamo action. Here, we analyze snapshots from self-consist...
