The effects of expansion and turbulence on the interplanetary evolution of a magnetic cloud
Coronal mass ejections represent the most extreme solar products, and show complex and dynamic structures when detected in situ. They are often preceded by a shock and carry a magnetic cloud organised as a flux rope, surrounded and permeated by turbulent fluctuations, and whose radial size expands during propagation.

Magnetic field strength distribution in interplanetary turbulence
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2000The distribution of magnetic field magnitudes is derived for the special case of a constant mean field and uncorrelated components having Gaussian distributions. Of the three cases considered (isotropic, transverse, and axisymmetric) the latter most closely resembles a lognormal distribution when the parallel variance is less than the perpendicular ...

Nonlocal plasma turbulence associated with interplanetary shocks
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1982The plasma wave instrument on ISEE 3 has detected regions of plasma turbulence that extend several tenths of an astronomical unit upstream or downstream of inteplanetary shocks. The plasma waves fall into four categories. Highly impulsive 1‐ 10‐kHz electric field bursts were found hours upstream of quasi‐parallel interplanetary shocks.

Turbulent cascade of incompressible unidirectional Alfvén waves in the interplanetary medium
Physical Review Letters, 1989The large-scale inhomogeneity of the solar wind is taken into account to estimate the turbulent flux due to nonlinear interactions among purely outward-traveling waves. The nonlinear interactions are mediated by secondary, incoming waves generated by the linear coupling of the dominant species to the large-scale gradients.

Turbulent spectra of the solar wind near interplanetary shocks
2015 1st URSI Atlantic Radio Science Conference (URSI AT-RASC), 2015The solar wind is a supersonic and super-Alfvenic plasma flow of solar origin filling the whole heliosphere. It has a strong turbulent character with several energy cascades. Interplanetary (IP) shocks are characterized by abrupt changes of plasma parameters and the magnetic field strength.

ULF Disturbances Caused by the Turbulent Sheath of Interplanetary Magnetic Clouds
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics, 2021Simultaneous disturbances of the total electron content and the horizontal component of geomagnetic field in the range of Pc6 are registered during periods of magnetospheric substorms. Such disturbances arise in intervals of interaction between Earth’s magnetosphere and the turbulent sheath of magnetic clouds.

On the scaling properties of anisotropy of interplanetary magnetic turbulent fluctuations
EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2010The anisotropic character of interplanetary magnetic-field turbulence has been studied through the analysis of Cluster data. The full tensor of the mixed second-order structure functions has been used to quatitatively measure the degree of anisotropy and its effect on small-scale turbulence.

Models of inertial range spectra of interplanetary magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1990Recently developed transport theories for small‐scale solar wind fluctuations explicitly treat convection, expansion, and other interactions with large‐scale gradients, while separating nonlinear effects associated with triple correlations of the fluctuations.

The magnetic field turbulence near interplanetary shock fronts
Advances in Space Research, 1984The power spectra (frequency range 10−3 to 10−2 Hz) of the magnetic field fluctuations near interplanetary shock fronts (IPS) are analysed using Venera 13 and Venera 14 data. Ten events in teh period from November, 1981 to February, 1982 typical for IPS passings are evaluated. The event on February 2, 1982 is considered in detail.

Fully Developed Anisotropic Hydromagnetic Turbulence in Interplanetary Space
Physical Review Letters, 1980The solar-wind magnetohydrodynamic turbulence is observed to be mainly made of Alfv\'enic fluctuations propagating away from the sun. It is shown that such an asymmetric state is a general consequence of the evolution of developed magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, which, starting from an initial asymmetry between modes with cross helicity + 1 and - 1 ...
