The influence of velocity shear on magnetic buoyancy instabilities

Most dynamo models agree that large-scale, weak poloidal magnetic field is wound up into strong toroidal field through differential rotation. Therefore, the strong radial gradients of angular velocity present in the solar tachocline are extremely likely to play a crucial role in the solar dynamo. Mo...
