Magnetic field kinks and folds in the solar wind

Anna Tenerani, Marco Velli, Lorenzo Matteini +18

Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observations during its first encounter at 35.7 have shown the presence of magnetic field lines which are strongly perturbed to the point that th…

The rotation angle distribution underlying magnetic field fluctuations in the 1/f range of solar wind turbulent spectra

L. Matteini, D. Stansby, T. S. Horbury +1

We discuss properties of large amplitude magnetic field fluctuations during fast Alfvenic solar wind streams, focussing on the statistics of the rotation angle between consecutive…

Turbulence vs. fire hose instabilities: 3-D hybrid expanding box simulations

P. Hellinger, L. Matteini, S. Landi +3

The relationship between a decaying plasma turbulence and proton fire hose instabilities in a slowly expanding plasma is investigated using three-dimensional (3-D) hybrid expanding…

In-situ observation of Hall Magnetohydrodynamic Cascade in Space Plasma

Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Luca Sorriso-Valvo, Alexandros Chasapis +13

We present estimates of the turbulent energy cascade rate, derived from a Hall-MHD third-order law. We compute the contribution from the Hall term and the MHD term to the energy fl…

The origin of slow Alfvénic solar wind at solar minimum

D. Stansby, L. Matteini, T. S. Horbury +3

Although the origins of slow solar wind are unclear, there is increasing evidence that at least some of it is released in a steady state on over-expanded coronal hole magnetic fiel…

Scattering of Strahl Electrons in the Solar Wind between 0.3 and 1 au: Helios Observations

L. Bercic, M. Maksimovic, S. Landi +1

Electron velocity distribution functions in the solar wind according to standard models consist of 4 components, of which 3 are symmetric - the core, the halo, and the superhalo, a…
