Small-Scale Energy Cascade of the Solar Wind Turbulence

Alexandrova, O.; Carbone, V.; Veltri, P. +1 more

Magnetic fluctuations in the solar wind are distributed according to Kolmogorov's power law f^-5/3 below the ion cyclotron frequency f_ci. Above this frequency, the observed steeper power law is usually interpreted in two different ways, as a dissipative range of the solar wind turbulence, or another turbulent cascade, the natu…
