The small-scale structure of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence with large magnetic Prandtl numbers

We study the intermittency and field-line structure of the MHD turbulence in plasmas with very large magnetic Prandtl numbers. In this regime, which is realized in the interstellar medium, some accretion disks, protogalaxies, galaxy-cluster gas, early Universe, etc., magnetic fluctuations can be exc...
