Turbulence in the Sub-Alfvénic Solar Wind

G. P. Zank, L. -L. Zhao, L. Adhikri +5

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) entered a region of the sub-Alfvenic solar wind during encounter 8 and we present the first detailed analysis of low-frequency turbulence properties in thi…

Detection of small magnetic flux ropes from the third and fourth Parker Solar Probe encounters

L. -L. Zhao, G. P. Zank, Q. Hu +22

We systematically search for magnetic flux rope structures in the solar wind to within the closest distance to the Sun of 0.13 AU, using data from the third and fourth orbits of th…

Turbulence Transport Modeling and First Orbit Parker Solar Probe (PSP) Observations

Laxman Adhikari, Gary P. Zank, Lingling Zhao +8

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) achieved its first orbit perihelion on November 6, 2018, reaching a heliocentric distance of about 0.165 au (35.55 R). Here, we study the evolution…

Identification of Magnetic Flux Ropes from Parker Solar Probe Observations during the First Encounter

L. -L. Zhao, G. P. Zank, L. Adhikari +17

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observed an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) event during its first orbit around the sun, among many other events. This event is analyzed by…

An introductory guide to fluid models with anisotropic temperatures Part 2 -- Kinetic theory, Padé approximants and Landau fluid closures

P. Hunana, A. Tenerani, G. P. Zank +7

In Part 2 of our guide to collisionless fluid models, we concentrate on Landau fluid closures. These closures were pioneered by Hammett and Perkins and allow for the rigorous incor…

An introductory guide to fluid models with anisotropic temperatures Part 1 -- CGL description and collisionless fluid hierarchy

P. Hunana, A. Tenerani, G. P. Zank +7

We present a detailed guide to advanced collisionless fluid models that incorporate kinetic effects into the fluid framework, and that are much closer to the collisionless kinetic…
