Abstract

The effects of turbulent pumping and η-quenching on Babcock-Leighton dynamo models are explored separately. Turbulent pumping seems to be important to solve several reported problems in these dynamo models related to the magnetic flux transport and to the parity. On the other hand, the suppression of the magnetic diffusivity, η, could help in the formation of long-lived, small and intense structures of toroidal magnetic field.
