Disruption of sheet-like structures in Alfvénic turbulence by magnetic reconnection
We propose a mechanism whereby the intense, sheet-like structures naturally formed by dynamically aligning Alfv´enic turbulence are destroyed by magnetic reconnection at a scale ˆλ D, larger than the dissipation scale predicted by models of intermittent, dynamically aligning turbulence. The reconnec...
