Ll. Kitchatinov et al., TURBULENT VISCOSITY, MAGNETIC DIFFUSIVITY, AND HEAT-CONDUCTIVITY UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ROTATION AND MAGNETIC-FIELD, Astronomische Nachrichten, 315(2), 1994, pp. 157-170
The old problem of turbulent diffusion is addressed to define the infl
uence of rotation and magnetic field - the usual ingredients of astrop
hysical bodies - on the effective transport coefficients. Either rotat
ion and magnetism produce the anisotropy and quenching. The tensorial
structures of the diffusivities and their dependences on the angular v
elocity and the field strength are explicitly defined. An example of a
pplication of the theory to the global stellar circulation model is gi
ven and the implications for cosmic dynamos are briefly discussed.
