Sub-Alfvenic Solar Wind observed by PSP: Characterization of Turbulence, Anisotropy, Intermittency, and Switchback
R. Bandyopadhyay, W. H. Matthaeus, D. J. McComas +18
In the lower solar coronal regions where the magnetic field is dominant, the Alfven speed is much higher than the wind speed. In contrast, the near-Earth solar wind is strongly sup…
Random Walk and Trapping of Interplanetary Magnetic Field Lines: Global Simulation, Magnetic Connectivity, and Implications for Solar Energetic Particles
Rohit Chhiber, David Ruffolo, William H. Matthaeus +4
The random walk of magnetic field lines is an important ingredient in understanding how the connectivity of the magnetic field affects the spatial transport and diffusion of charge…
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…
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…
