Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the turbulent magnetic integral length in the solar wind: from 0.3 to 5 astronomical units

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the probability distribution function of the integral turbulent scale or correlation length observed in the solar wind at different distances from the Sun and distinguished between the usual solar wind and one of its transient components (interplanetary coronal mass ejections, ICMEs).
Journal ArticleDOI

Aging of anisotropy of solar wind magnetic fluctuations in the inner heliosphere

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze the evolution of the interplanetary magnetic field spatial structure by examining the inner heliospheric autocorrelation function, using Helios 1 and Helios 2 in situ observations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonlinear guiding center theory of perpendicular diffusion in dynamical turbulence

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider numerical results of the nonlinear guiding center (NLGC) theory in the case of dynamical turbulence and compare these numerical results with observational results and with solutions of the magnetostatic dissipationless NLGC theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Propinquity of current and vortex structures: effects on collisionless plasma heating

TL;DR: In this article, the role of vorticity in plasma heating has been investigated in weakly collisional plasma turbulence simulations, with significant potential impact on understanding of the solar wind, solar corona and astrophysical plasmas.
