论文摘要

太阳风是一种高度动荡的等离子体,使用Politanao-Pouquet(PP98)精确定律,已经长时间测量了平均能量转移$ \ VAREPSILON $的等离子体。但是,该法律假定存在不连续性可能违反的统计同质性。在这里,我们介绍了一种基于惯性耗散$ \ dis $的新方法,该方法的分析形式来自不可压缩的磁性水力动力学(MHD);它可以被视为弱的,{\ it local}(在太空中)PP98定律的公式,其表达在集成之后被恢复为空间。我们使用$ \ dis $来估算从\ textit {themis-b}和\ textit {parker solar probe}(psp)在太阳能中获取的数据的局部能量传输速率。我们的研究表明,太阳附近的不连续性导致强大的能量转移,影响了广泛的尺度$σ$。我们还观察到,折返似乎具有奇异行为的特征,其能量传递的变化为$σ^{ - 3/4} $,这与以$σ^{ - 1} $缩放为特征的经典不连续性略有不同。 $ \ varepsilon $和$ \ dis $的测量值之间的比较表明,后者通常大于前者。

The solar wind is a highly turbulent plasma for which the mean rate of energy transfer $\varepsilon$ has been measured for a long time using the Politano-Pouquet (PP98) exact law. However, this law assumes statistical homogeneity that can be violated by the presence of discontinuities. Here, we introduce a new method based on the inertial dissipation $\Dis$ whose analytical form is derived from incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD); it can be considered as a weak and {\it local} (in space) formulation of the PP98 law whose expression is recovered after integration is space. We used $\Dis$ to estimate the local energy transfer rate from the \textit{THEMIS-B} and \textit{Parker Solar Probe} (PSP) data taken in the solar wind at different heliospheric distances. Our study reveals that discontinuities near the Sun lead to a strong energy transfer that affects a wide range of scales $σ$. We also observe that switchbacks seem to be characterized by a singular behavior with an energy transfer varying as $σ^{-3/4}$, which slightly differs from classical discontinuities characterized by a $σ^{-1}$ scaling. A comparison between the measurements of $\varepsilon$ and $\Dis$ shows that in general the latter is significantly larger than the former.
