Mean-field dynamo theory has important applications in solar physics and galactic
magnetism. We discuss some of the many turbulence effects relevant to the generation of …

Galaxies are observed to host magnetic fields with a typical total strength of around 15 μ G.
A coherent large-scale field constitutes up to a few microgauss of the total, while the rest is …

We present a suite of models of the coherent magnetic field of the Galaxy based on new
divergence-free parametric functions describing the global structure of the field. The model …

Context. Magnetic fields permeate the diffuse interstellar medium (ISM) of the Milky Way,
and are essential to explain the dynamical evolution and current shape of the Galaxy …

The Faraday rotation effect, quantified by the rotation measure (RM), is a powerful probe of
the large-scale magnetization of the Universe—tracing magnetic fields not only on galaxy …

Context. Magnetic turbulence is classified as weak or strong based on the relative amplitude
of the magnetic field fluctuations compared to the mean field. These two classes have …

Magnetorotational instability–driven (MRI-driven) turbulence and dynamo phenomena are
analyzed using direct statistical simulations. Our approach begins by developing a unified …

Magnetic fields are an energetically important component of star formation galaxies, but it is
often difficult to measure their properties from observations. One of the complexities stems …

Dynamo processes are ubiquitous in astrophysical systems. In relativistic astrophysical
systems, such as accretion disks around black holes or neutron stars, they may critically …

Arp 220 is the prototypical ultraluminous infrared Galaxy (ULIRG), and one of the brightest
objects in the extragalactic far-infrared sky. It is the result of a merger between two gas rich …
