Primordial magnetic fields constrained by CMB anisotropies and dynamo cosmology
Abstract
Magneto-curvature stresses could deform magnetic field lines and this would give rise to back reaction and restoring magnetic stresses [Tsagas, PRL (2001)]. Barrow et al [PRD (2008)] have shown in Friedman universe the expansion to be slow down in spatial section of negative Riemann curvatures. From Chicone et al [CMP (1997)] paper, proved that fast dynamos in compact 2D manifold implies negatively constant Riemannian curvature, here one applies the Barrow-Tsagas ideas to cosmic dynamos. Fast dynamo covariant stretching of Riemann slices of cosmic Lobachevsky plane is given. Inclusion of advection term on dynamo equations [Clarkson et al, MNRAS (2005)] is considered. In absence of advection a fast dynamo is also obtained. Viscous and restoring forces on stretching particles decrease, as magnetic rates increase. From COBE data ($\frac{δB}{B}\approx{10^{-5}}$), one computes stretching $\frac{δV^{y}}{V^{y}}=1.5\frac{δB}{B}\approx{1.5{\times}10^{-5}}$. Zeldovich et al has computed the maximum magnetic growth rate as $γ_{max}\approx{8.0{\times}10^{-1}t^{-1}}$. From COBE data one computes a lower growth rate for the magnetic field as $γ_{COBE}\approx{6.0{\times}10^{-6}t^{-1}}$, well-within Zeldovich et al estimate. Instead of the Harrison value $B\approx{t^{4/3}}$ one obtains the lower primordial field $B\approx{10^{-6}t}$ which yields the $B\approx{10^{-6}G}$ at the $1s$ Big Bang time.
