the spectrum of Kolmogorov turbulence

a schematic representation of the turbulent energy cascade from large to small scales

Kolmogorov's theory for incompressible hydrodynamic turbulence: it is based on the notion that that large eddies can feed energy to the smaller eddies and these in turn feed still smaller eddies, resulting in a cascade of energy from the largest eddies to the smallest ones.

on dimensional grounds, the only way of writing ε (energy transfer rate) in terms of V (velocity) and l(scale) is power spectrum of velocity!

Origin of magnetic fields in clusters

- generation of seed fields

- amplification of seed fields by turbulent flow motions

November 2, 2017 CHEA Collaboration Meeting UNIST, Korea

19/36

Suggestions include:

- generation in the early universe (e.g., see Widrow, Ryu et al 2012 for review)

e.g.) during the electroweak phase transition (t~10-12sec)

during the quark-hadron transition (t~10-5sec)

uncertain but maybe challenging (?)

- generation before the formation of the LSS of the universe

through plasma physical processes (e.g., see Ryu et al 2012 for review)

e.g.) Biermann battery or Weibel Instability at shocks(Kulsrud, Cen, Ostriker, & Ryu 1997) (Medvedev & Loeb 1999)

instabilities, thermal fluctuations, photo-ionization and etc …

weak (~ 10-20 G) and some at small scales, yet most promising(?)

- astrophysical processes

e.g.) magnetic fields from the first stars

maybe not the first magnetic field

Origin of seeds for comic magnetic fields is uncertain!

A model for magnetic fields in galaxy clusters

- vorticity generated at shocks and also due to baroclinity

- further enhanced by stretching and compression

- developed into turbulence- magnetic field produced by

turbulence dynamo

(Ryu et al 2008)

The model may reproduce the observed strength of magnetic field!

The growth time of magnetic fields in turbulence dynamo

time evolution of energies(Porter, Jones, & Ryu, 2015)

10 t / teddy

teddy ≡ Linjection / vturb

In clusters, if turbulence is driven mainly by major mergers,

Linjection ~ 500 kpc (clump size)

vturb ~ 500 km/s

teddy ~ 1 Gyrs ~ 1/10 tage

or tage ~ 1/10 teddy

(tage the age of the universe)

There seems to be enough time for the growth of B!

It takes t ~ severalⅹteddy to reach

Emag ~ 1/10 Ekin

The scale of magnetic fields in turbulence dynamo

~3 t / teddy

At t ~ 10 teddy,the peak of Pmag(k) is ~ 1/3 Linjection

the peak of kPmag(k) is ~ 1/10 Linjection

If Linjection ~ 500 kpc,

the peak of “kPmag(k)” (the peak scale of magnetic energy) ~ 50 kpc, too small?

in clusters- turbulence is driven “sporadically”- the medium is “stratified”

(Vazza et al + Ryu, 2016)

In clusters of galaxies, the turbulence is driven “sporadically”, mostly by “mergers”.

(Coma cluster)

Intracluster media are highly “stratified”, i.e., high density at cores and low density at outskirts.

(Roh, Ha & Ryu, preliminary)

November 2, 2017 CHEA Collaboration Meeting UNIST, Korea

Amplification of B up to Emag ~ Ekin /10 would be OK.

How about the scale of B?

Summary

- Magnetic field is ubiquitous in the large-scale structure of the universe including in clusters of galaxies.

- Magnetic fields of ~ a few μG in cluster outskirts could be explained by turbulence dynamo.

- The existence Mpc-scale magnetic fields in cluster outskirts need to be established in observation.

- Explaining large-scale magnetic fields of ~ Mpc scale, if they exist, would remain challenging in the picture of turbulence dynamo.
