Numerical Simulations of Magnetic Fields in Astrophysical Turbulence

Abstract

The generation and evolution of astrophysical magnetic fields occurs largely through the action of turbulence. In many situations, the magnetic field is strong enough to influence many important properties of turbulence itself. Numerical simulation of magnetized turbulence is especially challenging in the astrophysical regime because of the high magnetic Reynolds numbers involved, but some aspects of this difficulty can be avoided in weakly ionized systems.
