Radial Evolution of MHD Turbulence Anisotropy in Low Mach Number Solar Wind

Radial Evolution of MHD Turbulence Anisotropy in Low Mach Number Solar Wind

The Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Wind spacecraft observed the same plasma flow during PSP encounter 15. The solar wind evolves from a sub-Alfvénic flow at 0.08 au to become modestly super-Alfvénic at 1 au. We study the radial evolution of the turbulence properties and deduce the spectral anisotropy...
