Abstract
AbstractThe tachocline is important in the solar dynamo for the generation and the storage of the magnetic fields. A most plausible explanation for the confinement of the tachocline is given by the fast tachocline model in which the tachocline is confined by the anisotropic momentum transfer by the Maxwell stress of the dynamo generated magnetic fields. We employ a flux transport dynamo model coupled with the simple feedback formula of this fast tachocline model which basically relates the thickness of the tachocline to the Maxwell stress. We find that this nonlinear coupling not only produces a stable solar-like dynamo solution but also a significant latitudinal variation in the tachocline thickness which is in agreement with the observations.
