Measuring Collisionless Damping in Heliospheric Plasmas using Field-Particle Correlations
Kristopher G Klein, Gregory G Howes
An innovative field-particle correlation technique is proposed that uses single-point measurements of the electromagnetic fields and particle velocity distribution functions to inv…
Collisionless Isotropization of the Solar-Wind Protons by Compressive Fluctuations and Plasma Instabilities
Daniel Verscharen, Benjamin D. G. Chandran, Kristopher G. Klein +1
Compressive fluctuations are a minor yet significant component of astrophysical plasma turbulence. In the solar wind, long-wavelength compressive slow-mode fluctuations lead to cha…
Evolution of The Proton Velocity Distribution due to Stochastic Heating in the Near-Sun Solar Wind
Kristopher G. Klein, Benjamin D. G. Chandran
We investigate how the proton distribution function evolves when the protons undergo stochastic heating by strong, low-frequency, Alfvén-wave turbulence under the assumption that $…
