Abstract Solar Probe Plus (SPP) will be the first spacecraft to fly into the low solar corona.
SPP's main science goal is to determine the structure and dynamics of the Sun's coronal …

Alfvén waves are considered to be viable transporters of the non-thermal energy required to
heat the Sun's quiescent atmosphere. An abundance of recent observations, from state-of …

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 …

Abstract The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) entered a region of sub-Alfvénic solar wind during
encounter 8, and we present the first detailed analysis of low-frequency turbulence …

We develop a one-dimensional solar-wind model that includes separate energy equations
for the electrons and protons, proton temperature anisotropy, collisional and collisionless …

ABSTRACT A model is presented for generation of fast solar wind in coronal holes, relying
on heating that is dominated by turbulent dissipation of MHD fluctuations transported …

We present three-dimensional direct numerical simulations and an analytic model of
reflection-driven magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the solar wind. Our simulations …

We present direct numerical simulations of inhomogeneous reduced magnetohydrodynamic
(RMHD) turbulence between the Sun and the Alfvén critical point. These are the first such …

Shell models of hydrodynamic turbulence originated in the seventies. Their main aim was to
describe the statistics of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence in spectral space, using a …
