One-point statistics and intermittency of induced electric field in the solar wind
Luca Sorriso-Valvo, Vincenzo Carbone, Roberto Bruno
Abstract
The interplanetary induced electric field e=vxb is studied, using solar wind time series. The probability distribution functions (PDFs) of the electric field components are measured from the data and their non-gaussianity is discussed. Moreover, for the first time we show that the electric field turbulence is characterized by intermittency. This point is addressed by studying, as usual, the scaling of the PDFs of field increments, which allows a quantitative characterization of intermittency.
