Determination of a flow generating a neutral magnetic mode

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

The problem of reconstruction of a flow of conducting incompressible fluid generating a given magnetic mode is considered. We use the magnetic induction equation to derive ordinary differential equations along the magnetic field lines, which give an opportunity to determine the generating flow, if additional data is provided on a two-dimensional manifold transversal to magnetic field lines, and show that an arbitrary solenoidal vector field can not be a neutral magnetic mode sustained by any flow of conducting fluid.
