Correlations at large scales and the onset of turbulence in the fast solar wind
We show that the scaling of structure functions of magnetic and velocity fields in a mostly highly Alfv\'{e}nic fast solar wind stream depends strongly on the joint distribution of the dimensionless measures of cross helicity and residual energy. Already at very low frequencies, fluctuations th...
