Abstract

A new mechanism is presented for the local amplification and possible global dynamo maintenance of non-axisymmetric large-scale magnetic fields in disk galaxies. Shear in a galactic wind or large-scale flow of ionised gas with components axial and radial to the disk plane may regenerate large-scale magnetic fields.
