Scaling laws for the energy transfer in space plasma turbulence
One characteristic trait of space plasmas is the multi-scale dynamics resulting from non-
linear transfers and conversions of various forms of energy. Routinely evidenced in a range …

Large‐amplitude electric fields associated with bursty bulk flow braking in the Earth's plasma sheet
We report observations of large‐amplitude (> 50 mV/m) electric fields primarily associated
with bursty bulk flow events. These electric fields reach~ 500 mV/m, which are some of the …
