Towards Synthetic Magnetic Turbulence with Coherent Structures


Synthetic turbulence is a relevant tool to study complex astrophysical and space plasma environments inaccessible by direct simulation. However, conventional models lack intermittent coherent structures, which are essential in realistic turbulence. We present a novel method, featuring coherent structures, conditional structure function scaling and fieldline curvature statistics comparable to magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Enhanced transport of charged particles is investigated as well. This method presents significant progress towards physically faithful synthetic turbulence.

Stochastic interpolation of sparsely sampled time series by a superstatistical random process and its synthesis in Fourier and wavelet space


We present a novel method for stochastic interpolation of sparsely sampled time signals based on a superstatistical random process generated from a multivariate Gaussian scale mixture. In com- parison to other stochastic interpolation methods such as Gaussian process regression, our method possesses strong multifractal properties and is thus applicable to a broad range of real-world time series, e.g. from solar wind or atmospheric turbulence. Furthermore, we provide a sampling algo- rithm in terms of a mixing procedure that consists of generating a 1 + 1-dimensional field u(t, ξ), where each Gaussian component uξ(t) is synthesized with identical underlying noise but differ- ent covariance function Cξ(t,s) parameterized by a log-normally distributed parameter ξ. Due to the Gaussianity of each component uξ(t), we can exploit standard sampling alogrithms such as Fourier or wavelet methods and, most importantly, methods to constrain the process on the sparse measurement points. The scale mixture u(t) is then initialized by assigning each point in time t a ξ(t) and therefore a specific value from u(t, ξ), where the time-dependent parameter ξ(t) follows a log-normal process with a large correlation time scale compared to the correlation time of u(t, ξ). We juxtapose Fourier and wavelet methods and show that a multiwavelet-based hierarchical ap- proximation of the interpolating paths, which produce a sparse covariance structure, provide an adequate method to locally interpolate large and sparse datasets.
