The first computation of the compressible energy transfer rate from $sim$ 0.2 AU up to $sim$ 1.7 AU is obtained using PSP, THEMIS and MAVEN observations. The compressible energy cascade rate $varepsilon_C$ is computed for hundred of events at different heliocentric distances, for time intervals when the spacecraft were in the pristine solar wind. The observational results show moderate increases of $varepsilon_C$ with respect to the incompressible cascade rate $varepsilon_I$. Depending on the level of compressibility in the plasma, which reach up to 25 $%$ in the PSP perihelion, the different terms in the compressible exact relation are shown to have different impact in the total cascade rate $varepsilon_C$. Finally, the observational results are connected with the local ion temperature and the solar wind heating problem.
The anisotropy of solar wind turbulence is a critical issue in understanding the physics of energy transfer between scales and energy conversion between fields and particles in the heliosphere. Using the measurement of emph{Parker Solar Probe} (emph{
The scaling of the turbulent spectra provides a key measurement that allows to discriminate between different theoretical predictions of turbulence. In the solar wind, this has driven a large number of studies dedicated to this issue using in-situ da
The first two orbits of the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) spacecraft have enabled the first in situ measurements of the solar wind down to a heliocentric distance of 0.17 au (or 36 Rs). Here, we present an analysis of this data to study solar wind turbule
The slow solar wind is typically characterized as having low Alfvenicity. However, Parker Solar Probe (PSP) observed predominately Alfvenic slow solar wind during several of its initial encounters. From its first encounter observations, about 55.3% o
Motivated by the upcoming Solar Orbiter and Solar Probe Plus missions, qualitative and quantitative predictions are made for the effects of the violation of the Taylor hypothesis on the magnetic energy frequency spectrum measured in the near-Sun envi
