theory that a turbulent plasma relaxes to a minimum-energy force-free state while conserving total magnetic helicity.

In plasma physics, Taylor relaxation refers to theory that a turbulent plasma relaxes to a minimum-energy force-free state while conserving total magnetic helicity. This meaning comes from Taylor (1974) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
