Wavevector anisotropy of plasma turbulence at ion kinetic scales: solar wind observations and hybrid simulations

Wavevector anisotropy of ion-scale plasma turbulence is studied at various values of ion beta. Two complementary methods are used. One is multi-point measurements of magnetic field in the near-Earth solar wind as provided by the Cluster spacecraft mission, and the other is hybrid numerical simulatio...
