The Impact of Turbulent Solar Wind Fluctuations on Solar Orbiter Plasma Proton Measurements
Georgios Nicolaou, Daniel Verscharen, Robert T. Wicks +1
Solar Orbiter will observe the Sun and the inner heliosphere to study the connections between solar activity, coronal structure, and the origin of the solar wind. The plasma instru…
A Case for Electron-Astrophysics
Daniel Verscharen, Robert T. Wicks, Olga Alexandrova +27
A grand-challenge problem at the forefront of physics is to understand how energy is transported and transformed in plasmas. This fundamental research priority encapsulates the con…
Parallel-propagating Fluctuations at Proton-kinetic Scales in the Solar Wind are Dominated by Kinetic Instabilities
Lloyd D. Woodham, Robert T. Wicks, Daniel Verscharen +3
We use magnetic helicity to characterise solar wind fluctuations at proton-kinetic scales from Wind observations. For the first time, we separate the contributions to helicity from…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] The essential role of multi-point measurements in turbulence investigations: the solar wind beyond single scale and beyond the Taylor Hypothesis
W. H. Matthaeus, R. Bandyopadhyay, M. R. Brown +46
This paper briefly reviews a number of fundamental measurements that need to be made in order to characterize turbulence in space plasmas such as the solar wind. It has long been k…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] Disentangling the Spatiotemporal Structure of Turbulence Using Multi-Spacecraft Data
J. M. TenBarge, O. Alexandrova, S. Boldyrev +26
This white paper submitted for 2020 Decadal Assessment of Plasma Science concerns the importance of multi-spacecraft missions to address fundamental questions concerning plasma tur…
