MHD Turbulence in the Solar Wind and Interplanetary Dynamo Effects [PDF]
From the fluctuations of the velocity and magnetic field observed in different kinds of solar wind the fluctuating electric fields are derived, and their power spectra are constructed and analysed. The mean electromotive force ɛ generated by the turbulent motions depends upon the nature of the fluctuations.

Cosmic ray fluctuations and MHD waves in the solar wind
During large-scale solar wind disturbances, variations in galactic cosmic rays with periods from several minutes to 2–3 hours, which are called cosmic ray fluctuations in the scientific literature, often occur.

Kinematic models of the interplanetary magnetic field [PDF]
Current knowledge on the description of the interplanetary magnetic field is reviewed with an emphasis on the kinematic approach as well as the analytic expression.

The discovery of very prominent magnetic kinks/switchbacks in the solar wind within 0.3 au has become a scientific highlight of the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission. This discovery points at the promising impact of small-scale solar activity on the inner

von Karman Correlation Similarity of the Turbulent Interplanetary Magnetic Field
Abstract A major development underlying much of hydrodynamic turbulence theory is the similarity decay hypothesis due to von Karman and Howarth here extended empirically to magnetic field fluctuations in the solar wind. In similarity decay the second-order correlation experiences a continuous transformation based on a universal ...

Interpretation of Flat Energy Spectra Upstream of Fast Interplanetary Shocks
Interplanetary shocks are large-scale heliospheric structures often caused by eruptive phenomena at the Sun, and represent one of the main sources of energetic particles.

Solar and Interplanetary Turbulence: Lagrangian Coherent Structures
<p>The dynamics of solar and interplanetary plasmas is governed by coherent structures such as current sheets and magnetic flux ropes which are responsible for the genesis of intermittent turbulence via magnetic reconnections in solar supergranular junctions, solar coronal loops, the shock-sheath region of an interplanetary ...
