One characteristic trait of space plasmas is the multi-scale dynamics resulting from non-
linear transfers and conversions of various forms of energy. Routinely evidenced in a range …

Modern observatories have revealed the ubiquitous presence of magnetohydrodynamic
waves in the solar corona. The propagating waves (in contrast to the standing waves) are …

The dissipative mechanism in weakly collisional plasma is a topic that pervades decades of
studies without a consensus solution. We compare several energy dissipation estimates …

Observed turbulence in space and astrophysics is expected to involve cascade and
subsequent dissipation and heating. Contrary to standard collisional fluid turbulence, the …

The physical foundations of the dissipation of energy and the associated heating in weakly
collisional plasmas are poorly understood. Here, we compare and contrast several …

Abstract The Parker Solar Probe mission has shown the ubiquitous presence of strong
magnetic field deflections, namely switchbacks, during its first perihelion where it was …

It is well known that collisionless systems are dissipation free from the perspective of particle
collision and thus conserve entropy. However, processes such as magnetic reconnection …

Kinetic simulations based on the Eulerian Hybrid Vlasov-Maxwell (HVM) formalism permit
the examination of plasma turbulence with a useful resolution of the proton velocity …

The smallest characteristic scales, at which electron dynamics determines the plasma
behaviour, are the next frontier in space and astrophysical plasma research. The analysis of …

Our understanding of processes occurring in the heliosphere historically began with
reduced dimensionality-one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) sketches and …
