Particle Acceleration by Mhd Turbulence
Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions in the picture of particle acceleration. We make use of the recently established scaling of slow and fast MHD modes in strong and weak MHD turbulence to provide a systematic study of particle acceleration in magnetic pressure (low-β) and gaseous pressure (high-β) dominated plasmas. We consider the accele...
متن کاملAcceleration of particles in imbalanced magnetohydrodynamic turbulence.
The present work investigates the acceleration of test particles, relevant to the solar-wind problem, in balanced and imbalanced magnetohydrodynamic turbulence (terms referring here to turbulent states possessing zero and nonzero cross helicity, respectively). These turbulent states, obtained numerically by prescribing the injection rates for the ideal invariants, are evolved dynamically with t...
متن کاملAcceleration of energetic particles by large-scale compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Fast particles diffusing along magnetic field lines in a turbulent plasma can diffuse through and then return to the same eddy many times before the eddy is randomized in the turbulent flow. This leads to an enhancement of particle acceleration by largescale compressible turbulence relative to previous estimates in which isotropic particle diffusion is assumed.
متن کاملStochastic particle acceleration by helical turbulence in solar flares
Flaring release of magnetic energy in solar corona is only possible if the magnetic field deviates from a potential one. We show that the linear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modes excited on top of the non-potential magnetic field possess a non-zero kinetic helicity. Accordingly, this necessarily results in a noticeable kinetic helicity of the turbulence, composed of these linear modes with variou...
متن کاملCosmic Ray Scattering by Compressible Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for substantial revisions in the picture of cosmic ray transport. In this paper we use recently obtained scaling laws for MHD modes to calculate the scattering frequency for cosmic rays in the ISM. We consider gyroresonance with MHD modes (Alfvénic, slow and fast) and transit-time damping (TTD) by fast modes. We provi...
