    Energy transfer in reconnection and turbulence

    , Physical Review E: Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft Matter Physics, Vol: 104, ISSN: 1539-3755

    Reconnection and turbulence are two of the most commonly observed dynamical processes in plasmas, but their relationship is still not fully understood. Using 2.5D kinetic particle-in-cell simulations of both strong turbulence and reconnection, we compare the cross-scale transfer of energy in the two systems by analyzing the generalization of the von Kármán Howarth equations for Hall magnetohydrodynamics, a formulation that subsumes the third-order law for steady energy transfer rates. Even though the large scale features are quite different, the finding is that the decomposition of the energy transfer is structurally very similar in the two cases. In the reconnection case, the time evolution of the energy transfer also exhibits a correlation with the reconnection rate. These results provide explicit evidence that reconnection dynamics fundamentally involves turbulence-like energy transfer.

    Exploring satellite-derived relationships between cloud droplet number concentration and liquid water path using a large-domain large-eddy simulation

    <jats:p>&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;page&amp;quot; title=&amp;quot;Page 1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;layoutArea&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;column&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Important aspects of the adjustments to aerosol-cloud interactions can be examined using the relationship between cloud droplet number concentration (Nd) and liquid water path (LWP). Specifically, this relation can constrain the role of aerosols in leading to thicker or thinner clouds in response to adjustment mechanisms. This study investigates the satellite retrieved relationship between Nd and LWP for a selected case of mid-latitude continental clouds using high-resolution Large-eddy simulations (LES) over a large domain in weather prediction mode. Since the satellite retrieval uses adiabatic assumption to derive the Nd (NAd), we have also considered NAd from the LES model for comparison. The NAd-LWP relationship in the satellite and the LES model show similar, generally positive, but non-monotonic relations. This case over continent thus behaves differently compared to previously-published analysis of oceanic clouds, and the analysis illustrates a regime dependency (marine and continental) in the NAd-LWP relation in the satellite retrievals. The study further explores the impact of the satellite&amp;amp;#160;retrieval assumptions on the Nd-LWP relationship. When considering the relationship of the actually simulated cloud-top Nd, rather than NAd, with LWP, the result shows a much more nonlinear relationship. The difference is much less pronounced, however, for shallow stratiform than for convective clouds. Comparing local vs large-scale statistics from satellite data shows that continental clouds exhibit only a weak nonlinear Nd-LWP relationship. Hence a regime based Nd-LWP analysis is even more relevant when it comes to continental clouds.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;

    The angular-momentum flux in the solar wind observed during Solar Orbiter's first orbit

    , Astronomy and Astrophysics: a European journal, Vol: 656, Pages: 1-10, ISSN: 0004-6361

    Aims. We present the first measurements of the angular-momentum flux in the solar wind recorded by the Solar Orbiter spacecraft. Our aim is to validate these measurements to support future studies of the Sun’s angular-momentum loss.Methods. We combined 60-min averages of the proton bulk moments and the magnetic field measured by the Solar Wind Analyser and the magnetometer onboard Solar Orbiter. We calculated the angular-momentum flux per solid-angle element using data from the first orbit of the mission’s cruise phase in 2020. We separated the contributions from protons and from magnetic stresses to the total angular-momentum flux.Results. The angular-momentum flux varies significantly over time. The particle contribution typically dominates over the magnetic-field contribution during our measurement interval. The total angular-momentum flux shows the largest variation and is typically anti-correlated with the radial solar-wind speed. We identify a compression region, potentially associated with a co-rotating interaction region or a coronal mass ejection, which leads to a significant localised increase in the angular-momentum flux, albeit without a significant increase in the angular momentum per unit mass. We repeated our analysis using the density estimate from the Radio and Plasma Waves instrument. Using this independent method, we find a decrease in the peaks of positive angular-momentum flux, but otherwise, our results remain consistent.Conclusions. Our results largely agree with previous measurements of the solar wind’s angular-momentum flux in terms of amplitude, variability, and dependence on radial solar-wind bulk speed. Our analysis highlights the potential for more detailed future studies of the solar wind’s angular momentum and its other large-scale properties with data from Solar Orbiter. We emphasise the need for studying the radial evolution and latitudinal dependence of the angular-momentum flux in combination with data from

    Solar wind current sheets and deHoffmann-Teller analysis First results from Solar Orbiter's DC electric field measurements

    , Astronomy and Astrophysics: a European journal, Vol: 656, Pages: 1-7, ISSN: 0004-6361

    Context. Solar Orbiter was launched on 10 February 2020 with the purpose of investigating solar and heliospheric physics using a payload of instruments designed for both remote and in situ studies. Similar to the recently launched Parker Solar Probe, and unlike earlier missions, Solar Orbiter carries instruments designed to measure low-frequency DC electric fields.Aims. In this paper, we assess the quality of the low-frequency DC electric field measured by the Radio and Plasma Waves instrument (RPW) on Solar Orbiter. In particular, we investigate the possibility of using Solar Orbiter’s DC electric and magnetic field data to estimate the solar wind speed.Methods. We used a deHoffmann-Teller (HT) analysis, based on measurements of the electric and magnetic fields, to find the velocity of solar wind current sheets, which minimises a single component of the electric field. By comparing the HT velocity to the proton velocity measured by the Proton and Alpha particle Sensor (PAS), we have developed a simple model for the effective antenna length, Leff of the E-field probes. We then used the HT method to estimate the speed of the solar wind.Results. Using the HT method, we find that the observed variations in Ey are often in excellent agreement with the variations in the magnetic field. The magnitude of Ey, however, is uncertain due to the fact that the Leff depends on the plasma environment. Here, we derive an empirical model relating Leff to the Debye length, which we can use to improve the estimate of Ey and, consequently, the estimated solar wind speed.Conclusions. The low-frequency electric field provided by RPW is of high quality. Using the deHoffmann-Teller analysis, Solar Orbiter’s magnetic and electric field measurements can be used to estimate the solar wind speed when plasma data are unavailable.

    Solar Orbiter observations of an ion-scale flux rope confined to a bifurcated solar wind current sheet

    , Astronomy & Astrophysics, Vol: 656, Pages: 1-8, ISSN: 0004-6361

    Context. Flux ropes in the solar wind are a key element of heliospheric dynamics and particle acceleration. When associated withcurrent sheets, the primary formation mechanism is magnetic reconnection and flux ropes in current sheets are commonly used astracers of the reconnection process.Aims. Whilst flux ropes associated with reconnecting current sheets in the solar wind have been reported, their occurrence, sizedistribution, and lifetime are not well understood.Methods. Here we present and analyse new Solar Orbiter magnetic field data reporting novel observations of a flux rope confined toa bifurcated current sheet in the solar wind. Comparative data and large-scale context is provided by Wind.Results. The Solar Orbiter observations reveal that the flux rope, which does not span the current sheet, is of ion scale, and in areconnection formation scenario, existed for a prolonged period of time as it was carried out in the reconnection exhaust. Wind is alsofound to have observed clear signatures of reconnection at what may be the same current sheet, thus demonstrating that reconnectionsignatures can be found separated by as much as ∼ 2 000 Earth radii, or 0.08 au.Conclusions. The Solar Orbiter observations provide new insight into the hierarchy of scales on which flux ropes can form, and showthat they exist down to the ion scale in the solar wind. The context provided by Wind extends the spatial scale over which reconnectionsignatures have been found at solar wind current sheets. The data suggest the local orientations of the current sheet at Solar Orbiterand Wind are rotated relative to each other, unlike reconnection observed at smaller separations; the implications of this are discussedwith reference to patchy vs. continuous reconnection scenarios.

    Magnetic reconnection as a mechanism to produce multiple protonpopulations and beams locally in the solar wind

    , Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy, Vol: 656, Pages: 1-8, ISSN: 0250-6335

    Context. Spacecraft observations early revealed frequent multiple protonpopulations in the solar wind. Decades of research on their origin have focusedon processes such as magnetic reconnection in the low corona and wave-particleinteractions in the corona and locally in the solar wind.Aims.This study aimsto highlight that multiple proton populations and beams are also produced bymagnetic reconnection occurring locally in the solar wind. Methods. We use highresolution Solar Orbiter proton velocity distribution function measurements,complemented by electron and magnetic field data, to analyze the association ofmultiple proton populations and beams with magnetic reconnection during aperiod of slow Alfv\'enic solar wind on 16 July 2020. Results. At least 6reconnecting current sheets with associated multiple proton populations andbeams, including a case of magnetic reconnection at a switchback boundary, arefound during this day. This represents 2% of the measured distributionfunctions. We discuss how this proportion may be underestimated, and how it maydepend on solar wind type and distance from the Sun. Conclusions. Althoughsuggesting a likely small contribution, but which remains to be quantitativelyassessed, Solar Orbiter observations show that magnetic reconnection must beconsidered as one of the mechanisms that produce multiple proton populationsand beams locally in the solar wind.

    Study of two interacting interplanetary coronal mass ejections encountered by Solar Orbiter during its first perihelion passage Observations and modeling

    , Astronomy and Astrophysics: a European journal, Vol: 656, ISSN: 0004-6361

    Context. Solar Orbiter, the new-generation mission dedicated to solar and heliospheric exploration, was successfully launched on February 10, 2020, 04:03 UTC from Cape Canaveral. During its first perihelion passage in June 2020, two successive interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs), propagating along the heliospheric current sheet (HCS), impacted the spacecraft.Aims. This paper addresses the investigation of the ICMEs encountered by Solar Orbiter on June 7−8, 2020, from both an observational and a modeling perspective. The aim is to provide a full description of those events, their mutual interaction, and their coupling with the ambient solar wind and the HCS.Methods. Data acquired by the MAG magnetometer, the Energetic Particle Detector suite, and the Radio and Plasma Waves instrument are used to provide information on the ICMEs’ magnetic topology configuration, their magnetic connectivity to the Sun, and insights into the heliospheric plasma environment where they travel, respectively. On the modeling side, the Heliospheric Upwind eXtrapolation model, the 3D COronal Rope Ejection technique, and the EUropean Heliospheric FORecasting Information Asset (EUHFORIA) tool are used to complement Solar Orbiter observations of the ambient solar wind and ICMEs, and to simulate the evolution and interaction of the ejecta in the inner heliosphere, respectively.Results. Both data analysis and numerical simulations indicate that the passage of two distinct, dynamically and magnetically interacting (via magnetic reconnection processes) ICMEs at Solar Orbiter is a possible scenario, supported by the numerous similarities between EUHFORIA time series at Solar Orbiter and Solar Orbiter data.Conclusions.
