Fluctuation dynamo in a weakly collisional plasma
The turbulent amplification of cosmic magnetic fields depends upon the material properties of the host plasma. In many hot, dilute astrophysical systems, such as the intracluster medium (ICM) of galaxy clusters, the rarity of particle–particle collisions allows departures from local thermodynamic eq...
