Journal ArticleDOI
Parallel and perpendicular cascades in solar wind turbulence
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the distinct nature of parallel and perpendicular cascades and their roles in the evolution of solar wind fluctuations, and the role of wave and turbulence processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical Balance and the Physics of Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, a discussion of the advantages and limitations of the concept of critical balance, as employed in turbulence phenomenologies, is presented, focusing on the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) case.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cosmic-ray pitch-angle scattering in isotropic turbulence
TL;DR: A dissipation range is incorporated in the turbulence model to reconcile the divergent conclusions from studies of cosmic-ray pitch-angle scattering in isotropic magnetic turbulence as mentioned in this paper, and the Fokker-Planck coefficient for pitch-angles scattering is calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, high-resolution multispacecraft magnetic field measurements from the magnetospheric multiscale mission's flux-gate magnetometer are employed to examine statistical properties of plasma turbulence in the terrestrial magnetosheath and in the solar wind.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dependence of Kinetic Plasma Turbulence on Plasma β
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the effects of the ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic pressure on the evolution of kinetic plasma turbulence using fully kinetic particle-in-cell simulations of decaying turbulence.
