Scaling laws for the energy transfer in space plasma turbulence

Sorriso-Valvo, Luca; Marino, Raffaele

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 from the large-scale solar structures down to the characteristic scales of ions and electrons, turbulence is a major cross-scale energy transfer mechanism in space plas…
