Stochastic proton heating by kinetic-Alfvén-wave turbulence in moderately high- plasmas
Ian W. Hoppock, Benjamin D. G. Chandran, Kristopher G. Klein +2
Stochastic heating refers to an increase in the average magnetic moment of charged particles interacting with electromagnetic fluctuations whose frequencies are smaller than the pa…

Interplay between intermittency and dissipation in collisionless plasma turbulence
Alfred Mallet, Kristopher G. Klein, Benjamin D. G. Chandran +5
We study the damping of collisionless Alfvénic turbulence by two mechanisms: stochastic heating (whose efficiency depends on the local turbulence amplitude ) and linear Landa…
