Estimates of Proton and Electron Heating Rates Extended to the Near-Sun Environment

Estimates of Proton and Electron Heating Rates Extended to the Near-Sun Environment

A central problem of space plasma physics is how protons and electrons are heated in a turbulent, magnetized plasma. The differential heating of charged species due to dissipation of turbulent fluctuations plays a key role in solar wind evolution. Measurements from previous heliophysics missions hav...
