Magnetic field generation in a continuous medium in processes without self-excitation—the so-called semi-dynamo, involving as essential elements both magnetohydrodynamic processes and the presence of an impressed e.m.f.—has been studied for the case of the topological pumping effect on the magnetic field generation by an impressed e.m.f. operating in a three-dimensional Benard convection layer. Under conditions of interest for astrophysical applications the magnetic flux produced can exceed substantially that excited by the e.m.f. in the absence of motion. The results obtained permitted an evaluation of the general quasi-steady magnetic field of the Sun generated by an azimuthal Coriolis e.m.f. which is active in the outermost layers of the convective envelope, taking into account small-scale convective and turbulent motions. In the polar regions of the Sun this field can reach ∼10-1 G. |
