چکیده
Abstract The scaling of magnetic fluctuations provides crucial information for the understanding solar wind turbulence. However, observed contain not only turbulence but also structures, leading to violation time stationarity. This would conceal true and influence determination sampling angle with respect local background field. Here, investigate anisotropy, we utilize a simple effective criterion ϕ < 10° ensure stationarity field, where is between two averaged fields after cutting interval into halves. We study anisotropy using higher-order statistics structure functions under condition near-Sun first based on measurements obtained from Parker Solar Probe at 0.17 au. find that indices ξ field show linear dependence order p close ( ) = /4. multifractal magnetic-trace becomes monoscaling /3 perpendicular direction /4 parallel when measured stationary velocity-trace has similar less significant changes. displays different anisotropies near-Earth turbulence, suggesting evolution nonlinear interaction process during expansion.

Evolution of Near-Sun Solar Wind Turbulence
This paper presents a preliminary analysis of the turbulence spectrum of the solar wind in the near-Sun region R < 50R⊙, obtained from interplanetary scintillation measurements with the Ooty Radio Telescope at 327 MHz. The results clearly show that the scintillation is dominated by density irregularities of size about 100 − 500 km. The scintillation at the small-scale side of the spectrum, alth...
متن کاملNonaxisymmetric anisotropy of solar wind turbulence.
A key prediction of turbulence theories is frame-invariance, and in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, axisymmetry of fluctuations with respect to the background magnetic field. Paradoxically the power in fluctuations in the turbulent solar wind are observed to be ordered with respect to the bulk macroscopic flow as well as the background magnetic field. Here, nonaxisymmetry across the inert...
متن کاملAnisotropy of imbalanced Alfvénic turbulence in fast solar wind.
We present the first measurement of the scale-dependent power anisotropy of Elsasser variables in imbalanced fast solar wind turbulence. The dominant Elsasser mode is isotropic at lower spacecraft frequencies but becomes increasingly anisotropic at higher frequencies. The subdominant mode is anisotropic throughout. There are two distinct subranges exhibiting different scalings within what is no...
متن کاملAnisotropy of solar wind turbulence between ion and electron scales.
The anisotropy of turbulence in the fast solar wind, between the ion and electron gyroscales, is directly observed using a multispacecraft analysis technique. Second order structure functions are calculated at different angles to the local magnetic field, for magnetic fluctuations both perpendicular and parallel to the mean field. In both components, the structure function value at large angles...
متن کاملScaling of Anisotropy in Hydromagnetic Turbulence
Evidence accumulated over the past several decades indicates that a large-scale applied (dc) magnetic field imposes a preferred direction on turbulence, and thus plays an important role in plasma diffusion [1], energetic particle scattering [2], and plasma heating [3–5]. Each of these in turn may significantly influence large-scale flows and structure [6–8]. The interplay between turbulence and...
