Luddens %J Physics %D 2011 %I arXiv %R 10.1103/PhysRevE.84.016317 %X It is numerically demonstrated by means of a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code that precession can trigger the dynamo effect in a cylindrical container. This result adds credit to the hypothesis that precession can be strong enough to be one of the sources of the dynamo action in some astrophysical bodies. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1102.1846v1
