A Two-component Transport Model for Solar Wind Fluctuations: Waves plus Quasi-2D Turbulence

We present a model for the transport of solar wind fluctuations, based on the assumption that they can be well-represented using two distinct components: a quasi-2D turbulence piece and a wave-like piece. For each component, coupled transport equations for its energy, cross helicity, and characteristic lengthscale(s) are derived, along with an equation for the proton temperature. This energy-co...

Experience plus explanation

The more clearly the clinician comprehends the processes of clinical perception and of linking the experience with explanation, the more thoughtfully clinical students can be guided to construct an accurate 'clinical memory' of cases, and to construct a sound 'working knowledge' structure from their personal 'examined experience'. The structuring of the steps of clinical learning is intended as...

Is 2D turbulence a conformal turbulence?

A critical analysis of the conformal approach to the theory of 2d turbulence is delivered. It is shown, in particular, that conformal minimal models cannot give a general turbulent solution, which should provide for constant fluxes of all vorticity integrals of motion. The problem of small-scale spectrum of two-dimensional turbulence is a peculiar problem among the variety of turbulent systems....
