This project investigates how magnetic fields are generated in planetary cores through the dynamo mechanism. By developing a new computer code, it aims to accurately simulate the flow of liquid metal and its effects on magnetic field generation, which is crucial for understanding planetary evolution and the conditions…
We wish to understand how magnetic fields are generated in the cores of planets.
This process is called the dynamo mechanism, whose understanding remains one of the geophysical grand challenges.
In cores of rocky planets and in gas giants, thermal forcing results in convection and the resulting flow of liquid metal transports heat and generates magnetic fields as a result of the electrical currents that are induced by their motion.
Magnetic field generation affects heat transport and cooling, co…
