Preheating—cosmic magnetic dynamo?

BA Bassett, G Pollifrone, S Tsujikawa, F Viniegra - Physical Review D, 2001 - APS
We study the amplification of large-scale magnetic fields during preheating and inflation in
several different models. Preheating can resonantly amplify seed fields on cosmological …

Magnetized cosmological perturbations

CG Tsagas, R Maartens - Physical Review D, 2000 - APS
A large-scale cosmic magnetic field affects not only the growth of density perturbations, but
also rotational instabilities and anisotropic deformation in the density distribution. We give a …

Primordial magnetic field amplification from turbulent reheating

E Calzetta, A Kandus - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
We analyze the possibility of primordial magnetic field amplification by a stochastic large
scale kinematic dynamo during reheating. We consider a charged scalar field minimally …
