The Turbulent Chiral Magnetic Cascade in the Early Universe
The Turbulent Chiral Magnetic Cascade in the Early Universe
The presence of asymmetry between fermions of opposite handedness in plasmas of relativistic particles can lead to exponential growth of a helical magnetic field via a small-scale chiral dynamo instability known as the chiral magnetic effect. Here, we show, using dimensional arguments and numerical simulations, that this process produces through …
