从快到慢太阳风质子尺度的光谱斜率变化

Spectral Slope Variation at Proton Scales from Fast to Slow Solar Wind

R. Bruno, L. Trenchi, D. Telloni

摘要:

我们研究了行星际磁场波动在质子尺度上的光谱斜率的行为,选择高分辨率的时间间隔从风和信使号航天器在$1$ AU和$0.56$ AU,分别。分析是在高速气流的剖面内进行的,从快速风区移动到慢速风区。谱斜率显示出$-3.75$和$-1.75$之间的较大变化性,并且在这两种状态之间逐渐过渡之后,该参数在速度较高的后缘内变得更陡,并且在随后的较慢的风内变得更平坦。谱指数的值似乎完全取决于惯性范围内波动的功率,功率越高,斜率越陡。我们的结果支持以前的分析表明,必须有一些响应的耗散机制的能量传递率沿惯性范围的水平。

英文摘要:

We investigated the behavior of the spectral slope of interplanetary magnetic field fluctuations at proton scales for selected high resolution time intervals from WIND and MESSENGER spacecraft at $1$ AU and $0.56$ AU, respectively. The analysis was performed within the profile of high speed streams, moving from fast to slow wind regions. The spectral slope showed a large variability between $-3.75$ and $-1.75$ and a robust tendency for this parameter to be steeper within the trailing edge where the speed is higher and to be flatter within the subsequent slower wind, following a gradual transition between these two states. The value of the spectral index seems to depend firmly on the power associated to the fluctuations within the inertial range, higher the power steeper the slope. Our result support previous analyses suggesting that there must be some response of the dissipation mechanism to the level of the energy transfer rate along the inertial range.
