Turbulence, spatial transport, and heating of the solar wind [PDF]
A phenomenological theory describes radial evolution of plasma turbulence in the solar wind from 1 to 50 astronomical units. The theory includes a simple closure for local anisotropic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, spatial transport, and driving by ...

On the spectrum of mid-latitude sporadic-E irregularities [PDF]
We discuss the creation of mid-latitude sporadic-E plasma irregularities (with length-scales smaller than sporadic layer thickness) by the neutral atmosphere turbulence.

The Impact of Turbulence on the Ionosphere and Magnetosphere
An important property associated with turbulence in plasmas and fluids is anomalous transport. Plasma, being a good conductor, can in addition be affected by turbulence causing an anomalous resistivity that can significantly exceed its classical ...

α Effect and Magnetic Diffusivity β in Helical Plasma Under Turbulence Growth
We investigate the transport coefficients α and β in plasma systems with varying Reynolds numbers while maintaining a unit magnetic Prandtl number (PrM). The α and β tensors parameterize the turbulent electromotive force (EMF) in terms of the large-scale

Plasma and Magnetic Field Turbulence in the Earth’s Magnetosheath at Ion Scales
Crossing the Earth’s bow shock is known to crucially affect solar wind plasma including changes in turbulent cascade. The present review summarizes results of more than 15 years of experimental exploration into magnetosheath turbulence.

Shadowing effects in simulated Alcator C-Mod gas puff imaging data
A synthetic gas puff imaging (GPI) diagnostic is applied to a gyrokinetic turbulence simulation of Alcator C-Mod with the objective of assessing the impact of turbulent plasma fluctuations on the GPI neutral density field.

Parametric dependence of microwave beam broadening by plasma density turbulence
High-power microwave beams used for heating and current drive in magnetically confined fusion plasmas can be broadened significantly by plasma turbulence, negatively impacting the efficiency of the machine.

Evidence of Critical Balance in Kinetic Alfven Wave Turbulence Simulations
A numerical simulation of kinetic plasma turbulence is performed to assess the applicability of critical balance to kinetic, dissipation scale turbulence. The analysis is performed in the frequency domain to obviate complications inherent in performing a
