Astrophysical gyrokinetics: turbulence in pressure-anisotropic plasmas at ion scales and beyond
We present a theoretical framework for describing electromagnetic kinetic turbulence in a multi-species, magnetized, pressure-anisotropic plasma. The turbulent fluctuations are assumed to be small compared to the mean field, to be spatially anisotropic with respect to it and to have frequencies smal...
