The solar wind as a turbulence laboratory

R Bruno, V Carbone - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2013 - Springer
In this review we will focus on a topic of fundamental importance for both astrophysics and
plasma physics, namely the occurrence of large-amplitude low-frequency fluctuations of the …

Theory of cosmic ray transport in the heliosphere

NE Engelbrecht, F Effenberger, V Florinski… - Space Science …, 2022 - Springer
Modelling the transport of cosmic rays (CRs) in the heliosphere represents a global
challenge in the field of heliophysics, in that such a study, if it were to be performed from first …

Theory and transport of nearly incompressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence

GP Zank, L Adhikari, P Hunana, D Shiota… - The Astrophysical …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
The theory of nearly incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (NI MHD) was developed
largely in the early 1990s, together with an important extension to inhomogeneous flows in …

Flux tube texture of the solar wind: Strands of the magnetic carpet at 1 AU?

JE Borovsky - Journal of Geophysical Research: Space …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
It is argued here that the inner heliosphere is filled with a network of entangled magnetic flux
tubes and that the flux tubes are fossil structures that originate at the solar surface. 65,860 …

Perpendicular ion heating by low-frequency Alfvén-wave turbulence in the solar wind

BDG Chandran, B Li, BN Rogers… - The Astrophysical …, 2010 - iopscience.iop.org
We consider ion heating by turbulent Alfvén waves (AWs) and kinetic Alfvén waves (KAWs)
with wavelengths (measured perpendicular to the magnetic field) that are comparable to the …

Turbulence transport in the solar corona: Theory, modeling, and Parker Solar Probe

GP Zank, LL Zhao, L Adhikari, D Telloni… - Physics of …, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
A primary goal of the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) Mission is to answer the outstanding
question of how the solar corona plasma is heated to the high temperatures needed for the …

Generation of the fast solar wind: A review with emphasis on the resonant cyclotron interaction

JV Hollweg, PA Isenberg - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
In situ measurements of the solar wind and remote observations of coronal holes have
strongly implicated the resonant interaction with ion cyclotron waves as the responsible …

The solar magnetic field

SK Solanki, B Inhester… - Reports on progress in …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
The magnetic field of the Sun is the underlying cause of the many diverse phenomena
combined under the heading of solar activity. Here we describe the magnetic field as it …

Incorporating kinetic physics into a two-fluid solar-wind model with temperature anisotropy and low-frequency Alfvén-wave turbulence

BDG Chandran, TJ Dennis, E Quataert… - The Astrophysical …, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
We develop a one-dimensional solar-wind model that includes separate energy equations
for the electrons and protons, proton temperature anisotropy, collisional and collisionless …
