Averaging Effects on the Solar Wind Alfven Mach Number: Implications for Switchbacks and Alfven Transition
Joshua Goodwill, Subash Adhikari, Francesco Pecora +10
Averaging techniques in solar wind measurements have been a longstanding subject of debate. Using Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observations from encounters 1 to 19, we investigate how…
Noise in Synthetic and Solar Wind Data: Superposition Principles
Jiaming Wang, Francesco Pecora, Rohit Chhiber +3
The interplanetary magnetic field exhibits a distinctive spectral density from frequencies of around $\unit[10^{-6}]{Hz}$ to around $\unit[10^{-4}]{Hz}$, ranging from harmoni…
A robust empirical relationship between speed and turbulence energy in the near-Earth solar wind
Rohit Chhiber, Yanwen Wang, Manuel E. Cuesta +2
The connection between turbulence and solar-wind acceleration, long known in space physics, is further developed in this Letter by establishing a robust empirical law that relates…
Interplanetary magnetic correlation and low-frequency spectrum over many solar rotations
Jiaming Wang, Francesco Pecora, Rohit Chhiber +2
Fluctuations and structure across a wide range of spatial and temporal scales are frequently studied in the solar wind. The properties of the low-frequency fluctuations are of rele…
