Journal ArticleDOI

Statistical Analysis of Discontinuities in Solar Wind ACE Data and Comparison with Intermittent MHD Turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) solar wind data and simulations of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence shows a good agreement in the waiting-time analysis of magnetic field increments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for Inhomogeneous Heating in the Solar Wind

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to probe the nature of turbulence heating and found that significant inhomogeneous heating occurs in the solar wind, connected with current sheets that are dynamically generated by MHD turbulence.
Journal ArticleDOI

A kinetic model of plasma turbulence

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid Vlasov-Maxwell (HVM) model is used to simulate the deformation of the proton velocity distribution function (DF), with non-maxwellian features being concentrated near regions of strong magnetic gradients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intermittency, nonlinear dynamics and dissipation in the solar wind and astrophysical plasmas.

TL;DR: An overview is given of important properties of spatial and temporal intermittency, including evidence of its appearance in fluids, magnetofluids and plasmas, and its implications for understanding of heliospheric Plasmas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic Reconnection and Intermittent Turbulence in the Solar Wind

TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical relationship between magnetic reconnection, current sheets, and intermittent turbulence in the solar wind is reported for the first time using in situ measurements from the Wind spacecraft at 1 AU.
