Using Synthetic Spacecraft Data to Interpret Compressible Fluctuations in Solar Wind Turbulence

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of the density-parallel magnetic field correlation for these kinetic wave modes are presented and compared to the observational determination of this correlation based on 10 years of Wind spacecraft data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inertial range turbulence in kinetic plasmas

TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical foundation for the study of the kinetic cascade is constructed, and the key role played by the entropy cascade, a dual cascade of energy to small scales in both physical and velocity space, is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical interpretation of the angle-dependent magnetic helicity spectrum in the solar wind: the nature of turbulent fluctuations near the proton gyroradius scale

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of three intervals of Ulysses data with synthetic time series generated from a physically motivated turbulence model was made, and it is hypothesized that the observed signatures result from a perpendicular cascade of Alfv?nic fluctuations and a local, non-turbulent population of ion cyclotron or whistler waves generated by temperature anisotropy instabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicted impacts of proton temperature anisotropy on solar wind turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, a unified framework for the four proton temperature anisotropy instabilities is presented, identifying the associated stable eigenmodes, highlighting the unstable region of wavevector space and presenting the properties of growing eigenfunctions.
