Three-dimensional modelling of the shock-turbulence interaction

Domenico Trotta, Oreste Pezzi, David Burgess +12

The complex interaction between shocks and plasma turbulence is extremely important to address crucial features of energy conversion in a broad range of astrophysical systems. We s…

Anisotropic electron heating in turbulence-driven magnetic reconnection in the near-Sun solar wind

Luca Franci, Emanuele Papini, Alfredo Micera +5

We perform a high-resolution two-dimensional fully-kinetic numerical simulation of a turbulent plasma system with observation-driven conditions, in order to investigate the interpl…

On the transmission of turbulent structures across the Earth's Bow Shock

Domenico Trotta, Francesco Pecora, Adriana Settino +7

Collisionless shocks and plasma turbulence are crucial ingredients for a broad range of astrophysical systems. The shock-turbulence interaction, and in particular the transmission…

Direct Evidence for Magnetic Reflection of Heavy Ions from High Mach Number Collisionless Shocks

Hadi Madanian, Steven J. Schwartz, Stephen A. Fuselier +5

Strong shocks in collisionless plasmas, such as supernovae shocks and shocks driven by coronal mass ejections, are known to be a primary source of energetic particles. Due to their…

The interaction between shocks and plasma turbulence: phase space transport

Domenico Trotta, Francesco Valentini, David Burgess +1

The interaction of collisionless shocks with fully developed plasma turbulence is numerically investigated. Hybrid kinetic simulations, where a turbulent jet is slammed against an…

Evidence of a "current-mediated" turbulent regime in space and astrophysical plasmas

Luca Franci, Daniele Del Sarto, Emanuele Papini +6

How the turbulent energy cascade develops below the magnetohydrodynamic scales in space and astrophysical plasmas is a major open question. Here, we measure the power spectrum of m…
