Intermittent turbulence as the driver of stochastic heating in the near-Sun solar wind
Tamar Ervin, Trevor A. Bowen, Alfred Mallet +9
Understanding the mechanism by which the energy is dissipated at small scales to heat the outer corona and expanding solar wind, is a primary goal of the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) m…
Physics of Circular Polarized Ion-Scale Waves in Hybrid Simulations of Alfvénic Fluctuations
Hai Yang Harry Qian, Trevor A. Bowen, Carlos A. Gonzalez +5
Ion cyclotron waves (ICW) and fast magnetosonic/whistler waves (FMW) are fundamental electromagnetic modes at ion kinetic scales, yet their generation mechanisms and roles in plasm…
The Second Quadratic Invariant of Astrophysical Gyrokinetics
Benjamin D. G. Chandran, Alfred Mallet, Romain Meyrand
We show that gyrokinetics in a spatially uniform equilibrium (or `astrophysical gyrokinetics') possesses a previously unknown quadratic invariant, which we call the gyrokinetic hel…
Direct Measurement of Diffusion Coefficients: Evidence for Diffusive Stochastic Heating in Collisionless Plasmas
Tamar Ervin, Trevor A. Bowen, Alfred Mallet +7
Open questions in collisionless plasma dissipation can be addressed using space-based observations in different astrophysical environments, with implications for both astrophysical…
Evolution and Impact of Switchbacks Throughout the Heliosphere
Alfred Mallet, Chen Shi, Anna Tenerani +23
Magnetic switchbacks are large-amplitude fluctuations in the interplanetary magnetic field, and appear frequently in the near-Sun solar wind explored recently by Parker Solar Probe…
Generation and Expansion-Driven Growth of Switchbacks in the Outer Solar Corona and Solar Wind
Nikos Sioulas, Marco Velli, Chen Shi +6
We analyze \emph{Parker Solar Probe} and \emph{Solar Orbiter} measurements of magnetic-field reversals (``switchbacks'') across the Alfvén surface (), where is t…
