Abstract
Helicity transfer in a shell model of turbulence is investigated. In p articular, we study the scaling behavior of helicity transfer in a dyn amical model of turbulence lacking inversion symmetry. We present some phenomenological and numerical support to the idea that Helicity beco mes -at scale small enough- a passively-advected quantity.
