On the Validity of the Taylor Hypothesis in MHD, Hall-MHD, and Hybrid-Vlasov-Maxwell Turbulence
Abstract
We present results of the analysis of magnetic field power spectral densities computed using MHD, compressible Hall-MHD, and Hybrid-Vlasov-Maxwell simulations. The technique used allows a synthetic spacecraft to fly at different speeds within the simulation box, trying to mimic both solar wind and magnetosheat flows. The exact spectra obtained from simulations are then compared with the ones computed from the measurements sampled by the artificial spacecraft. This work is devoted to explore, and subsequently predict, the limit of the validation of the Taylor hypothesis in different plasma turbulence configurations and is part of the study phase to support the ESA/THOR mission.
