Abstract
The turbulent electromotive force as well as the kinetic and current helicities have been computed for a turbulence subject to magnetic buoyancy and global rotation. The dynamo-alpha is found as positive in the northern hemisphere and negative in the southern hemisphere and the kinetic helicity has just the same signs.In agreement with the observations the current helicity is negative in the northern hemisphere and positive in the southern hemisphere. Our current helicities and alpha-effects are thus always out of phase. The signs of alpha-effect and both helicities exactly correspond to a numerical simulation by Brandenburg & Schmitt (1998).
