Multi-Species Measurements of the Firehose and Mirror Instability Thresholds in the Solar Wind
C. H. K. Chen, L. Matteini, A. A. Schekochihin +5
The firehose and mirror instabilities are thought to arise in a variety of space and astrophysical plasmas, constraining the pressure anisotropies and drifts between particle speci…
Two-dimensional Hybrid Simulations of Kinetic Plasma Turbulence: Current and Vorticity vs Proton Temperature
Luca Franci, Petr Hellinger, Lorenzo Matteini +2
Proton temperature anisotropies between the directions parallel and perpendicular to the mean magnetic field are usually observed in the solar wind plasma. Here, we employ a high-r…
Multiple current sheet systems in the outer heliosphere: Energy release and turbulence
David Burgess, P. W. Gingell, Lorenzo Matteini
In the outer heliosphere, beyond the solar wind termination shock, it is expected that the warped heliospheric current sheet forms a region of closely-packed, multiple, thin curren…
