The interaction between shocks and plasma turbulence: phase space transport
Domenico Trotta, Francesco Valentini, David Burgess +1
The interaction of collisionless shocks with fully developed plasma turbulence is numerically investigated. Hybrid kinetic simulations, where a turbulent jet is slammed against an…
A spectral method algorithm for numerical simulations of gravitational fields
Claudio Meringolo, Sergio Servidio, Pierluigi Veltri
A numerical study of the Einstein field equations, based on the 3+1 foliation of the spacetime, is presented. A pseudo-spectral technique has been employed for simulations in vacuu…
On the Identification of Coherent Structures in Space Plasmas: the Magnetic Helicity-PVI Method
F. Pecora, S. Servidio, A. Greco +1
Plasma turbulence can be viewed as a magnetic landscape populated by large and small scale coherent structures. In this complex network, large helical magnetic tubes might be separ…
Local and global properties of energy transfer in models of plasma turbulence
Christian L. Vásconez, Denise Perrone, Raffaele Marino +5
The nature of the turbulent energy transfer rate is studied using direct numerical simulations of weakly collisional space plasmas. This is done comparing results obtained from hyb…
Kinetic Entropy-Based Measures of Distribution Function Non-Maxwellianity: Theory and Simulations
Haoming Liang, M. Hasan Barbhuiya, P. A. Cassak +4
We investigate kinetic entropy-based measures of the non-Maxwellianity of distribution functions in plasmas, i.e., entropy-based measures of the departure of a local distribution f…
