Electron–Ion Heating Partition in Imbalanced Solar-wind Turbulence
A likely candidate mechanism to heat the solar corona and solar wind is low-frequency “Alfvénic” turbulence sourced by magnetic fluctuations near the solar surface. Depending on its properties, such turbulence can heat different species via different mechanisms, and the comparison of theoretical pre...
