Quantifying the Agyrotropy of Proton and Electron Heating in Turbulent Plasmas

Quantifying the Agyrotropy of Proton and Electron Heating in Turbulent Plasmas

An important aspect of energy dissipation in weakly collisional plasmas is that of energy partitioning between different species (e.g., protons and electrons) and between different energy channels. Here we analyse pressure–strain interaction to quantify the fractions of isotropic compressive, gyrotr...
