Direct observation of ion cyclotron damping of turbulence in Earth's magnetosheath plasma
A. S. Afshari, G. G. Howes, et al.
This groundbreaking research by A. S. Afshari and colleagues from the University of Iowa and other esteemed institutions directly observes ion cyclotron damping of turbulence in Earth's magnetosheath plasma, utilizing spacecraft measurements from the MMS mission. The team uncovers the dominant channels of turbulent dissipation and energy partitioning between ions and electrons.
