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…
Observations of heating along intermittent structures in the inner heliosphere from PSP data
R. A. Qudsi, B. A. Maruca, W. H. Matthaeus +22
The solar wind proton temperature at 1-au has been found to be correlated with small-scale intermittent magnetic structures, i.e., regions with enhanced temperature are associated…
Clustering of Intermittent Magnetic and Flow Structures near Parker Solar Probe's First Perihelion -- A Partial-Variance-of-Increments Analysis
Rohit Chhiber, M. Goldstein, B. Maruca +23
During the Parker Solar Probe's (PSP) first perihelion pass, the spacecraft reached within a heliocentric distance of \(\sim 37~R_\odot\) and observed numerous magnetic and flow st…
In situ Measurement of Curvature of Magnetic Field in Turbulent Space Plasmas: A Statistical Study
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Yan Yang, William H. Matthaeus +10
Using in situ data, accumulated in the turbulent magnetosheath by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Mission, we report a statistical study of magnetic field curvature and discuss…
Reynolds Number and Intermittency in the Expanding Solar Wind: Predictions Based on Voyager Observations
Tulasi N. Parashar, Manuel Cuesta, William H. Matthaeus
The large scale features of the solar wind are examined in order to predict small scale features of turbulence in unexplored regions of the heliosphere. The strategy is to examine…
Role of magnetic field curvature in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Yan Yang, Minping Wan, William H. Matthaeus +4
Magnetic field are transported and tangled by turbulence, even as they lose identity due to nonideal or resistive effects. On balance field lines undergo stretch-twist-fold process…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] The essential role of multi-point measurements in turbulence investigations: the solar wind beyond single scale and beyond the Taylor Hypothesis
W. H. Matthaeus, R. Bandyopadhyay, M. R. Brown +46
This paper briefly reviews a number of fundamental measurements that need to be made in order to characterize turbulence in space plasmas such as the solar wind. It has long been k…
