dc.description.abstract |
We present the first numerical model of the magnetohydrodynamical cosmic-ray (CR) driven dynamo of the type proposed by Parker (1992). The driving force of the amplification process comes from CRs injected into the galactic disk in randomly distributed spherical regions representing supernova remnants. The underlying disk is differentially rotating. An explicit resistivity is responsible for the dissipation of the small-scale magnetic field component. We obtain amplification of the large-scale magnetic on a timescale 250 Myr. |
