摘要: Dynamo action is studied using numerical simulations of planar Boussinesq convection at rapid rotation, focusing on dynamo below convective onset. Subcritical successfully sustained in numerous cases, with an extension the subcritical regime more rotation. The presence a dependent large-scale mean field optimum values magnetic Prandtl number and Reynolds number.
