Interstellar turbulence I: observations and processes

BG Elmegreen, J Scalo - Annu. Rev. Astron. Astrophys., 2004 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Turbulence affects the structure and motions of nearly all temperature and density
regimes in the interstellar gas. This two-part review summarizes the observations, theory …

Wave turbulence

AC Newell, B Rumpf - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 2011 - annualreviews.org
In this article, we state and review the premises on which a successful asymptotic closure of
the moment equations of wave turbulence is based, describe how and why this closure …

Astrophysical gyrokinetics: kinetic and fluid turbulent cascades in magnetized weakly collisional plasmas

AA Schekochihin, SC Cowley, W Dorland… - The Astrophysical …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org

Self-consistent coronal heating and solar wind acceleration from anisotropic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence

SR Cranmer, AA Van Ballegooijen… - The Astrophysical …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a series of models for the plasma properties along open magnetic flux tubes
rooted in solar coronal holes, streamers, and active regions. These models represent the …

On the generation, propagation, and reflection of Alfvén waves from the solar photosphere to the distant heliosphere

SR Cranmer, AA Van Ballegooijen - The Astrophysical Journal …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org

atmosphere and the fast solar wind. Linear non-WKB wave transport equations are solved …

MHD turbulence: a biased review

AA Schekochihin - Journal of Plasma Physics, 2022 - cambridge.org
This review of scaling theories of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence aims to put the
developments of the last few years in the context of the canonical time line (from Kolmogorov …

Coronal holes and the high-speed solar wind

SR Cranmer - Space Science Reviews, 2002 - Springer
Coronal holes are the lowest density plasma components of the Sun's outer atmosphere,
and are associated with rapidly expanding magnetic fields and the acceleration of the high …

Evaluation of the turbulent energy cascade rates from the upper inertial range in the solar wind at 1 AU

We construct a database from ACE spacecraft measurements of solar wind magnetic field
fluctuations at 1 AU which resolves∼ 2 decades in frequency at the high end of the inertial …

Wave turbulence in incompressible Hall magnetohydrodynamics

S Galtier - Journal of Plasma Physics, 2006 - cambridge.org
We investigate the steepening of the magnetic fluctuation power law spectra observed in the
inner Solar wind for frequencies higher than 0.5 Hz. This high frequency part of the spectrum …
