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…
Magnetic field turbulence in the solar wind at sub-ion scales: in situ observations and numerical simulations
L. Matteini, L. Franci, O. Alexandrova +5
We investigate the transition of the solar wind turbulent cascade from MHD to sub-ion range by means of a detail comparison between in situ observations and hybrid numerical simula…
The role of parametric instabilities in turbulence generation and proton heating: Hybrid simulations of parallel propagating Alfvén waves
C. A. González, A. Tenerani, M. Velli +1
Large amplitude Alfvén waves tend to be unstable to parametric instabilities which result in a decay process of the initial wave into different daughter waves depending upon the am…
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…
On cascade of kinetic energy in compressible hydrodynamic turbulence
Petr Hellinger, Andrea Verdini, Simone Landi +3
Properties of the turbulent cascade of kinetic energy are studied using direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional hydrodynamic decaying turbulence with a moderate Reynolds…
Kinetic turbulence in space plasmas observed in the near-Earth and near-Sun solar wind
Olga Alexandrova, Vamsee Krishna Jagarlamudi, Claudia Rossi +4
Turbulence develops in any stressed flow when the scales of the forcing are much larger than those of the dissipation. In neutral fluids, it consists of chaotic motions in physical…
