[HTML][HTML] The multi-scale nature of the solar wind

D Verscharen, KG Klein, BA Maruca - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2019 - Springer

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 …
