Zusammenfassung |
In order to estimate the dissipation time-scale in magnetic turbulence in the
plasma sheet a novel method is introduced for classification of velocity
dependent patterns of two-point probability density functions'
shapes near their maxima. For the first time, we provide evidence for Reynolds
number (velocity) dependent widening of the inertial range in the plasma sheet.
Since spectral widening of the inertial range is a generic feature of many turbulent flows,
its examination can facilitate the recognition of intermittent turbulence in
the plasma sheet. |
