AbstractAbstract
[en] We present the first 2D hybrid-Vlasov simulations of turbulence in the solar wind that describe the evolution of the energy spectra in a range of two decades of wavelengths around the ion inertial scale. Several previous magnetohydrodynamics and particle-in-cell simulations in the range of large (fluid) wavelengths showed a marked anisotropy of the energy spectra in the direction perpendicular to the mean magnetic field. Here we give evidence that the parallel direction can also be a privileged way for turbulence to develop towards short scales, where kinetic effects govern the plasma dynamics.
