Steady toroidal induction by spherical differential rotation
ID: steady-toroidal-induction-by-spherical-differential-rotation
An axial uniform magnetic field and localized radial differential rotation generate a steady toroidal magnetic field. The angular factor is an eigenfunction of the toroidal angular diffusion operator with eigenvalue . Its radial amplitude satisfies . Differentiating the integral in the title proves the formula. It is regular at the origin and decays at infinity when is finite at zero and decays sufficiently rapidly.
