Show moreThe effects of turbulent pumping and η-quenching on Babcock-Leighton dynamo models are explored separately. Turbulent pumping seems to be important for solving several reported problems in these dynamo models related to the magnetic flux transport and to the parity of the solutions. On the other hand, the suppression of the magnetic diffusivity η, could help in the formation of long-lived, small and intense structures of toroidal magnetic field. Show less
