We review some of the work done to investigate statistical features of turbulence in the inner solar wind, within slow‐speed streams. We present results related to anomalous scaling laws of fluctuations and to the scaling behaviour of Probability Density Function (pdf). The results are compared with turbulence in other systems, that is neutral fluid flows and laboratory plasma. Some of the statistical properties are shared with low‐resolution cascade models which describe the gross features of turbulence.

Abstract
We review some of the work done to investigate statistical features of turbulence in the inner solar wind, within slow‐speed streams. We present results related to anomalous scaling laws of fluctuations and to the scaling behaviour of Probability Density Function (pdf). The results are compared with turbulence in other systems, that is neutral fluid flows and laboratory plasma. Some of the statistical properties are shared with low‐resolution cascade models which describe the gross features of turbulence.File in questo prodotto:
