Spacetime Hall-MHD turbulence at sub-ion scales: structures or waves?

Emanuele Papini, Antonio Cicone, Luca Franci +4

Spatiotemporal properties of two-dimensional (2D) Hall-magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at intermediate plasma are studied by means of Fast Iterative Filtering, a new technique…

Spectral transfer and Kármán-Howarth-Monin equations for compressible Hall magnetohydrodynamics

Petr Hellinger, Emanuele Papini, Andrea Verdini +4

We derive two new forms of the Kármán-Howarth-Monin equation for decaying compressible Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. We test them on results of a weakly-compressible,…

Proton energization by phase-steepening of parallel propagating Alfvénic fluctuations

C. A. González, A. Tenerani, L. Matteini +2

Proton energization at magnetic discontinuities generated by phase-steepened fronts of parallel propagating, large-amplitude Alfvénic fluctuation is studied using hybrid simulation…

Evidence of a "current-mediated" turbulent regime in space and astrophysical plasmas

Luca Franci, Daniele Del Sarto, Emanuele Papini +6

How the turbulent energy cascade develops below the magnetohydrodynamic scales in space and astrophysical plasmas is a major open question. Here, we measure the power spectrum of m…

Multidimensional Iterative Filtering: a new approach for investigating plasma turbulence in numerical simulations

Emanuele Papini, Antonio Cicone, Mirko Piersanti +4

Turbulent space and astrophysical plasmas exhibit a complex dynamics, which involves nonlinear coupling across different temporal and spatial scales. There is growing evidence that…

Fast acceleration of transrelativistic electrons in astrophysical turbulence

Domenico Trotta, Luca Franci, David Burgess +1

Highly energetic, relativistic electrons are commonly present in many astrophysical systems, from solar flares to the intra-cluster medium, as indicated by observed electromagnetic…
