Likewise, the turbulent magnetic diffusivity, eta_t, is determined from the decay of a large scale magnetic field. In the kinematic regime, when the field is weak, the turbulent magnetic Prandtl number, nu_t/eta_t, is about unity. When the field is nonhelical, eta_t is quenched when magnetic and kinetic energies become comparable. For helical fields the quenching is stronger and can be described by a dynamical quenching formula.7 pages, 6 figuresAstrophysicstext
