A method for reconstructing the variance of a 3D physical field from 2D observations: application to turbulence in the interstellar medium
We introduce and test an expression for calculating the variance of a physical field in three dimensions using only information contained in the two-dimensional projection of the field. The method is general but assumes statistical isotropy. To test the method we apply it to numerical simulations of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic …
