equal importance to the three components of the scientific trinity: theoretical, experimental …

The multi-scale nature of the solar wind

D Verscharen, KG Klein, BA Maruca - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2019 - Springer
The solar wind is a magnetized plasma and as such exhibits collective plasma behavior
associated with its characteristic spatial and temporal scales. The characteristic length …

High-frequency heating of the solar wind triggered by low-frequency turbulence

J Squire, R Meyrand, MW Kunz, L Arzamasskiy… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
The fast solar wind's high speeds and non-thermal features require that considerable
heating occurs well above the Sun's surface. Two leading theories seem incompatible: low …

The solar wind as a turbulence laboratory

R Bruno, V Carbone - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2013 - Springer
In this review we will focus on a topic of fundamental importance for both astrophysics and
plasma physics, namely the occurrence of large-amplitude low-frequency fluctuations of the …

fluctuations with spatial scales comparable to the gyroradius or ion inertial length of a …

Three Dimensional Anisotropic Spectra of Turbulence <?format ?>at Subproton Scales in the Solar Wind

F Sahraoui, ML Goldstein, G Belmont, P Canu… - Physical review …, 2010 - APS
We show the first three dimensional (3D) dispersion relations and k spectra of magnetic
turbulence in the solar wind at subproton scales. We used the Cluster data with short …

Evidence of a cascade and dissipation of solar-wind turbulence at the electron gyroscale

F Sahraoui, ML Goldstein, P Robert, YV Khotyaintsev - Physical review letters, 2009 - APS
We report the first direct determination of the dissipation range of magnetofluid turbulence in
the solar wind at the electron scales. Combining high resolution magnetic and electric field …
