Kolmogorov versus Iroshnikov-Kraichnan spectra: Consequences for ion heating in the solar wind
C. S. Ng, A. Bhattacharjee, D. Munsi +2
Whether the phenomenology governing MHD turbulence is Kolmogorov or Iroshnikov-Kraichnan (IK) remains an open question, theoretically as well as observationally. The ion heating pr…

The Effect of Magnetic Turbulence Energy Spectra and Pickup Ions on the Heating of the Solar Wind
C. S. Ng, A. Bhattacharjee, P. A. Isenberg +2
In recent years, a phenomenological solar wind heating model based on a turbulent energy cascade prescribed by the Kolmogorov theory has produced reasonably good agreement with obs…

High Lundquist Number Resistive MHD Simulations of Magnetic Reconnection: Searching for Secondary Island Formation
C. S. Ng, S. Ragunathan
Recently, secondary island formation due to the tearing instability of the Sweet-Parker current sheet was identified as a possible mechanism that can lead to fast reconnection (les…
