Stability of the toroidal magnetic field in rotating stars
read the original abstract
The magnetic field in stellar radiation zones can play an important role in phenomena such as mixing, angular momentum transport, etc. We study the effect of rotation on the stability of a predominantly toroidal magnetic field in the radiation zone. In particular we considered the stability in spherical geometry by means of a linear analysis in the Boussinesq approximation. It is found that the effect of rotation on the stability depends on a magnetic configuration. If the toroidal field increases with the spherical radius, the instability cannot be suppressed entirely even by a very fast rotation. Rotation can only decrease the growth rate of instability. If the field decreases with the radius, the instability has a threshold and can be completey suppressed.

Transport of angular momentum and chemical elements by the MRI dynamo in stellar radiative zones
Stratified MRI dynamo simulations give scaling laws for angular-momentum and chemical transport in stellar radiative zones, with Maxwell stress dominating and chemical mixing more strongly suppressed by stratification.
