Fig. 8: Ion energization rate as a function of cut-off frequency.
From: Direct observation of ion cyclotron damping of turbulence in Earth’s magnetosheath plasma
Time-averaged rate of work done on the ions by the perpendicular electric field \({\langle {{{{{\bf{j}}}}}}_{\perp,i}\cdot {{{{{\bf{E}}}}}}_{\perp }\rangle }_{\tau }\) vs. the high-pass cut off frequency fcut. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
