A Short Intense Dynamo at the Onset of Crystallization in White Dwarfs
The origin of large magnetic fields (≳10 ^6 G) in isolated white dwarfs is not clear. One possible explanation is that crystallization of the star’s core drives compositional convection, which when combined with the star’s rotation, can drive a dynamo. However, whether convection is efficient enough...
