Fabio Del Sordo, Alfio Bonanno, Axel Brandenburg, Dhrubaditya Mitra

TL;DR
This paper investigates how the Tayler instability can spontaneously break chiral symmetry, deriving amplitude equations with parameters fitted numerically and comparing the phenomenon to biochemical chiral symmetry breaking.
Contribution
It introduces a model with three free parameters for the Tayler instability and analyzes its chiral symmetry breaking properties, linking it to biochemical processes.
Findings
Effective amplitude equations are derived for the instability.
The model's parameters are numerically determined.
Comparison with biochemical chiral symmetry breaking is made.
Abstract
The chiral symmetry breaking properties of the Tayler instability are discussed. Effective amplitude equations are determined in one case. This model has three free parameters that are determined numerically. Comparison with chiral symmetry breaking in biochemistry is made.
