The multi-scale nature of the solar wind
The solar wind is a magnetized plasma and as such exhibits collective plasma behavior
associated with its characteristic spatial and temporal scales. The characteristic length …

Highly structured slow solar wind emerging from an equatorial coronal hole
During the solar minimum, when the Sun is at its least active, the solar wind 1, 2 is observed
at high latitudes as a predominantly fast (more than 500 kilometres per second), highly …

Evidence of a cascade and dissipation of solar-wind turbulence at the electron gyroscale
We report the first direct determination of the dissipation range of magnetofluid turbulence in
the solar wind at the electron scales. Combining high resolution magnetic and electric field …

Turbulent heating in galaxy clusters brightest in X-rays
Abstract The hot (107 to 108 kelvin), X-ray-emitting intracluster medium (ICM) is the
dominant baryonic constituent of clusters of galaxies. In the cores of many clusters, radiative …

High-frequency heating of the solar wind triggered by low-frequency turbulence
The fast solar wind's high speeds and non-thermal features require that considerable
heating occurs well above the Sun's surface. Two leading theories seem incompatible: low …
