In surface diffusion, one of the key observables is the so-called intermediate scattering function which is measured directly from the surface technique called Helium spin echo. In this work, we show that this function can be seen as a…

Context. The spatial power spectrum of supergranulation does not fully characterize the underlying physics of turbulent convection. For example, it does not describe the non-Gaussianity in the horizontal flow divergence. Aims. Our aim is to…
