Parametric Instability, Inverse Cascade, and the Range of Solar-Wind Turbulence
Benjamin D. G. Chandran
In this paper, weak turbulence theory is used to investigate the nonlinear evolution of the parametric instability in 3D low- plasmas at wavelengths much greater than the ion in…
Heating of Accretion-Disk Coronae and Jets by General Relativistic MHD Turbulence
Benjamin D. G. Chandran, Francois Foucart, Alexander Tchekhovskoy
Turbulence in an accretion disk launches Alfvén waves (AWs) that propagate away from the disk along magnetic field lines. Because the Alfvén speed varies with distance from the dis…
Disruption of Alfvénic turbulence by magnetic reconnection in a collisionless plasma
A. Mallet, A. A. Schekochihin, B. D. G. Chandran
We calculate the disruption scale at which sheet-like structures in dynamically aligned Alfvénic turbulence are destroyed by the onset of magnetic reconnection in a low…
