Regulation of Proton- Differential Flow by Compressive Fluctuations and Ion-scale Instabilities in the Solar Wind

Xingyu Zhu, Daniel Verscharen, Jiansen He +2

Large-scale compressive slow-mode-like fluctuations can cause variations in the density, temperature, and magnetic-field magnitude in the solar wind. In addition, they also lead to…

HelioSwarm: A Multipoint, Multiscale Mission to Characterize Turbulence

Kristopher G. Klein, Harlan Spence, Olga Alexandrova +47

HelioSwarm (HS) is a NASA Medium-Class Explorer mission of the Heliophysics Division designed to explore the dynamic three-dimensional mechanisms controlling the physics of plasma…

The Structure and Origin of Switchbacks: Parker Solar Probe Observations

Jia Huang, J. C. Kasper, L. A. Fisk +25

Switchbacks are rapid magnetic field reversals that last from seconds to hours. Current Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observations pose many open questions in regard to the nature of sw…

The essential role of multi-point measurements in investigations of turbulence, three-dimensional structure, and dynamics: the solar wind beyond single scale and the Taylor Hypothesis

W. H. Matthaeus, S. Adhikari, R. Bandyopadhyay +49

Space plasmas are three-dimensional dynamic entities. Except under very special circumstances, their structure in space and their behavior in time are not related in any simple way…

Shear-Driven Transition to Isotropically Turbulent Solar Wind Outside the Alfven Critical Zone

D. Ruffolo, W. H. Matthaeus, R. Chhiber +11

Motivated by prior remote observations of a transition from striated solar coronal structures to more isotropic ``flocculated'' fluctuations, we propose that the dynamics of the in…

Interplay of Turbulence and Proton-Microinstability Growth in Space Plasmas

Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Ramiz A. Qudsi, William H. Matthaeus +13

Numerous prior studies have shown that as proton beta increases, a narrower range of proton temperature anisotropy values is observed. This effect has often been ascribed to the ac…
