Perpendicular ion heating in turbulence and reconnection: magnetic moment breaking by coherent fluctuations

Alfred Mallet, Kristopher G. Klein, Benjamin D. G. Chandran +2

We study the interaction of an ion with a fluctuation in the electromagnetic fields that is localized in both space and time. We study the scale-dependence of the interaction in bo…

Scale-Dependent Dynamic Alignment in MHD Turbulence: Insights into Intermittency, Compressibility, and Imbalance Effects

Nikos Sioulas, Marco Velli, Alfred Mallet +7

Scale-Dependent Dynamic Alignment (SDDA) in Elsässer field fluctuations is theorized to suppress nonlinearities and modulate the energy spectrum. Limited empirical evidence exists…

Higher-Order Analysis of Three-Dimensional Anisotropy in Imbalanced Alfvénic Turbulence

Nikos Sioulas, Themistocles Zikopoulos, Chen Shi +10

We analyze in-situ observations of imbalanced solar wind turbulence to evaluate MHD turbulence models grounded in "Critical Balance" (CB) and "Scale-Dependent Dynamic Alignment" (S…

Measures of Three-Dimensional Anisotropy and Intermittency in Strong Alfvénic Turbulence

A. Mallet, A. A. Schekochihin, B. D. G. Chandran +4

We measure the local anisotropy of numerically simulated strong Alfvénic turbulence with respect to two local, physically relevant directions: along the local mean magnetic field a…

Refined critical balance in strong Alfvenic turbulence

A. Mallet, A. A. Schekochihin, B. D. G. Chandran

We present numerical evidence that in strong Alfvenic turbulence, the critical balance principle---equality of the nonlinear decorrelation and linear propagation times---is scale i…
