...... in generall
Whether the growth rate remains finite ("fast dynamo") or
tends to zero ("slow dynamo") as RM
tends to infinite , is not yet settled.
Are the stagnation points a nessecary ingredient for fast
dynamos;
Are chaos and magnetic field generation related ;
What is the influence of the period of an ABC flow on its
Dynamo action ;
Dynamics is important
Structures (Flux cigars, sheets, double cigars..).
Vectors, field and stream-lines.
Amplification mechanisms.
......for fast dynamo action
Do fast dynamo exist?
Can fast dynamo action be proved for various classes of flows ?
What special properties of flows are needed for fast dynamo
action ?
What magnetic structure is typical of the fields developed
by dynamo action ?
How are the geometrical properties of flow and field linked
?
Is it possible to formulate a theory for the perfect conductor
which will decide for or against fast dynamo action for a given flow
?
