Shell Models for Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
We review the main properties of shell models for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. After a brief account on shell models with nearest neighbour interactions, the paper focuses on the most recent results concerning dynamical properties and intermittency of a model which is a generalization to MHD of the Gledzer-Yamada-Okhitani (GOY) model for hydrodynamic. Applications to astrophysical prob...
متن کاملMultiscaling in Models of Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
From a numerical study of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations we show, for the first time in three dimensions sd 3d, that velocity and magnetic-field structure functions exhibit multiscaling, extended self-similarity (ESS), and generalized extended self-similarity (GESS). We propose a new shell model for homogeneous and isotropic MHD turbulence, which preserves all the invariants of ideal...
متن کاملConformal Models of Two–Dimensional Turbulence
Polyakov recently showed how to use conformal field theory to describe two-dimensional turbulence. Here we construct an infinite hierarchy of solutions, both for the constant enstrophy flux cascade, and the constant energy flux cascade. We conclude with some speculations concerning the stability and physical meaning of these solutions.
متن کاملImbalanced Weak Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
WeakMHD turbulence consists of waves that propagate along magnetic field lines, in both directions. When two oppositely directed waves collide, they distort each other, without changing their respective energies. Each wave suffers many collisions before cascading; by contrast, in strong MHD turbulence, waves cascade on the same timescale at which they collide. ‘‘ Imbalance ’’ means that more en...
متن کاملAnisotropic scaling of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
We present a quantitative estimate of the anisotropic power and scaling of magnetic field fluctuations in inertial range magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, using a novel wavelet technique applied to spacecraft measurements in the solar wind. We show for the first time that, when the local magnetic field direction is parallel to the flow, the spacecraft-frame spectrum has a spectral index near 2. T...
