Title:
Magnetic condensate in 2D Magnetohydrodynamics
Speaker:
Abstract:
By means of numerical simulations, we investigate the phenomenon of the self-organization of the magnetic field in a large-scale coherent structure, which occurs in two-dimensional magneto-hydro-dynamics in presence of a magnetic forcing. We show that the Lorentz force induced by the condensate is able to sustain a turbulent flow, but does not cause the development of a large-scale coherent vortex. The temporal correlation of the external forcing affects the mechanisms which allow to attain a statistically steady state, and influences the statistical properties of the magnetic condensate.
