ON THE ORIGIN OF THE 1/ <i>f</i> SPECTRUM IN THE SOLAR WIND MAGNETIC FIELD
We present a mechanism for the formation of the low-frequency 1/f magnetic spectrum based on numerical solutions of a shell-reduced MHD model of the turbulent dynamics inside the sub-Alfvénic solar wind. We assign reasonably realistic profiles to the wind speed and the density along the radial direction, and a radial …
