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…
Polytropic Behavior of Solar Wind Protons Observed by Parker Solar Probe
Georgios Nicolaou, George Livadiotis, Robert T. Wicks +2
A polytropic process describes the transition of a fluid from one state to another through a specific relationship between the fluid density and temperature. The value of the polyt…
Observations of Energetic-Particle Population Enhancements along Intermittent Structures near the Sun from Parker Solar Probe
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, W. H. Matthaeus, T. N. Parashar +31
Observations at 1 au have confirmed that enhancements in measured energetic particle fluxes are statistically associated with "rough" magnetic fields, i.e., fields having atypicall…
Enhanced Energy Transfer Rate in Solar Wind Turbulence Observed near the Sun from Parker Solar Probe
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, M. L. Goldstein, B. A. Maruca +25
Direct evidence of an inertial-range turbulent energy cascade has been provided by spacecraft observations in heliospheric plasmas. In the solar wind, the average value of the deri…
Measures of Scale Dependent Alfvénicity in the First PSP Solar Encounter
T. N. Parashar, M. L. Goldstein, B. A. Maruca +25
The solar wind shows periods of highly Alfvénic activity, where velocity fluctuations and magnetic fluctuations are aligned or anti-aligned with each other. It is generally agreed…
