First observation of fluid-like eddy-dominant bursty bulk flow turbulence in the Earth’s tail plasma sheet
Abstract Turbulence is a ubiquitous phenomenon in neutral and conductive fluids. According to classical theory, turbulence is a rotating flow containing vortices of different scales. Eddies play a fundamental role in the nonlinear cascade of kinetic energy at different scales in turbulent flow. In c...
