François PÉTRÉLIS

From February 23 to April 10, 2009

OBJECTIVES

The central topic of this program is dynamo theory. Lectures will however not be restricted exclusively to the dynamo problem. Instead, a strong emphasis will be placed on connected subjects, such as passive scalar advection, advection of a vector, of vorticity, effect of multiplicative noise on instabilities, dynamical systems (relaxation cycles, heteroclinic orbits, etc), wave turbulence (in particular applied to Alfven waves), etc.

FULL SESSION

WORKSHOP 1: Frontiers in Dynamo Theory (March 16 - 20, 2009)

WORKSHOP 2: Wave turbulence (April 8 - 10, 2009)
