Strong large scale magnetic fields in rotating convection-driven dynamos: The important role of magnetic diffusion
Natural dynamos such as planets and stars generate a global scale magnetic field despite the inferred presence of small scale turbulence. Such systems are known as large scale dynamos and are typically driven by convection and influenced by rotation. Previous numerical studies of rotating dynamos ge...
