The Origin of the Slow-to-Alfvén Wave Cascade Power Ratio and Its Implications for Particle Heating in Accretion Flows
The partition of turbulent heating between ions and electrons in radiatively inefficient accretion flows plays a crucial role in determining the observational appearance of accreting black holes. Modeling this partition is, however, a challenging problem because of the large scale-separation between...
