Identification of coherent structures in space plasmas: the magnetic helicity–PVI method
Identification of coherent structures in space plasmas: the magnetic helicity–PVI method
Plasma turbulence can be viewed as a magnetic landscape populated by large and small scale coherent structures. In this complex network, large helical magnetic tubes might be separated by small scale magnetic reconnection events (current sheets). However, the identification of these magnetic structures in a continuous stream of data has …
