We investigate the properties of plasma turbulence by means of two-dimensional Hall-magnetohydrodynamic (HMHD) and hybrid particle-in-cell (HPIC) numerical simulations. We find that HMHD simulations exhibit spectral properties that are in…

The propagation and non-linear interactions of magnetohydrodynamic waves are considered in the force-free limit, where the inertia of the conducting matter which enforces the MHD condition E.B = 0 can be neglected in comparison with the…
