Evolution of Turbulence in the Kelvin–Helmholtz Instability in the Terrestrial Magnetopause

The dynamics occurring at the terrestrial magnetopause are investigated by using Geotail and THEMIS spacecraft data of magnetopause crossings during ongoing Kelvin−Helmholtz instability. Properties of plasma turbulence and intermittency are presented, with the aim of understanding the evol...
