Journal ArticleDOI
Test Particle Energization by Current Sheets and Nonuniform Fields in Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed numerical experiments of test particle energization in turbulent magnetic and electric fields obtained from pseudospectral direct numerical solutions of compressible three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations with a strong background magnetic field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mhd-driven kinetic dissipation in the solar wind and corona
Robert J. Leamon,William H. Matthaeus,Charles W. Smith,Gary P. Zank,D. J. Mullan,Sean Oughton +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, structural structures at magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) scales may drive a nonlinear cascade, preferentially exciting high perpendicular wavevectors, and the relationship between the MHD cascade and direct cyclotron absorption is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisotropy in Fast and Slow Solar Wind Fluctuations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the correlation anisotropy of solar wind magnetohydrodynamic-scale fluctuations and showed that the nature of the correlation differs in fast and slow (<400 km s-1) streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical Analysis of Discontinuities in Solar Wind ACE Data and Comparison with Intermittent MHD Turbulence
Antonella Greco,Antonella Greco,William H. Matthaeus,Sergio Servidio,P. Chuychai,Pablo Dmitruk +5 more
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
Perpendicular Transport of Charged Particles in Composite Model Turbulence: Recovery of Diffusion
TL;DR: In this article, Qin, Matthaeus, and Bieber demonstrate that parallel scattering suppresses perpendicular diffusion to a sub-diffusive level when the turbulence lacks transverse structure, and a second regime of diffusive transport can be established.
