MHD simulations of supernova driven ISM turbulence
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2006
Abstract
Large-scale magnetic fields, that can be observed in numerous galaxies, are most likely the outcome of a dynamic process, a so-called dynamo. The favoured mechanisms for driving such a process in the ISM are supernovae (SNe) and/or magneto-rotational instability (MRI). In this work we simulate the dynamic evolution of the turbulent ISM utilising a three-dimensional MHD model.
