Wavevector anisotropy of plasma turbulence at ion kinetic scales: solar wind observations and hybrid simulations
Wavevector anisotropy of ion-scale plasma turbulence is studied at various values of ion beta.Two complementary methods are used.One is multi-point measurements of magnetic field in the near-Earth solar wind as provided by the Cluster spacecraft mission, and Scar the other is hybrid numerical simulation of two-dimensional plasma turbulence.Both met
