Asymmetric chiral alignment in magnetized plasma turbulence (1205.1891v3)
Published 9 May 2012 in physics.plasm-ph
Abstract: Multi species turbulence in inhomogeneous magnetised plasmas is found to exhibit symmetry breaking in the dynamical alignment of a third species with the fluctuating electron density and vorticity with respect to the magnetic field direction and the species' relative background gradients. The possibility of truly chiral aggregation of charged molecules in magnetized space plasma turbulence is discussed.
