Basic properties of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in the inertial range

Basic properties of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in the inertial range

We revisit the issue of the spectral slope of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the inertial range and argue that the numerics favour a Goldreich–Sridhar −5/3 slope rather than a −3/2 slope. We also perform precision measurements of the anisotropy of MHD turbulence and determine the anisotropy constant CA= 0.34 of …
