Nature of Kinetic Scale Turbulence in the Earth's Magnetosheath
C. H. K. Chen, S. Boldyrev
We present a combined observational and theoretical analysis to investigate the nature of plasma turbulence at kinetic scales in the Earth's magnetosheath. In the first decade of t…
Spectral Anisotropy of Elsässer Variables in Two Dimensional Wave-vector Space as Observed in the Fast Solar Wind Turbulence
Limei Yan, Jiansen He, Lei Zhang +6
Intensive studies have been conducted to understand the anisotropy of solar wind turbulence. However, the anisotropy of Elsässer variables () in 2D wave-vector spac…
Spectral breaks of Alfvenic turbulence in a collisionless plasma
Stanislav Boldyrev, Christopher H. K. Chen, Qian Xia +1
Recent observations reveal that magnetic turbulence in the nearly colisionless solar wind plasma extends to scales smaller than the plasma microscales, such as ion gyroradius and i…
Effects of electron drift on the collisionless damping of kinetic Alfvén waves in the solar wind
Yuguang Tong, Stuart D. Bale, Christopher H. K. Chen +2
The collisionless dissipation of anisotropic Alfvénic turbulence is a promising candidate to solve the solar wind heating problem. Extensive studies examined the kinetic properties…
