Magnetic field intermittency in the solar wind: PSP and SolO observations ranging from the Alfven region out to 1 AU

Nikos Sioulas, Zesen Huang, Marco Velli +17

and data are utilized to investigate magnetic field intermittency in the solar wind (SW). Small-scale intermittency is observed to radially strengthen…

Statistical analysis of intermittency and its association with proton heating in the near Sun environment

Nikos Sioulas, Marco Velli, Rohit Chhiber +9

We use data from the first six encounters of Parker Solar Probe and employ the Partial Variance of Increments () method to study the statistical properties of coherent structu…

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…

Intermittency and Ion Temperature-Anisotropy Instabilities: Simulation and Magnetosheath Observation

Ramiz A. Qudsi, Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Bennett A. Maruca +11

Weakly collisional space plasmas are rarely in local thermal equilibrium and often exhibit non-Maxwellian electron and ion velocity distributions that lead to the growth of microin…

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…

Proton Temperature Anisotropy Variations in Inner Heliosphere Estimated with First Parker Solar Probe Observations

Jia Huang, Justin C. Kasper, Daniel Vech +27

We report proton temperature anisotropy variations in the inner heliosphere with Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observations. Using a linear fitting method, we derive proton temperature…
