Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability at Proton Scales with an Exact Kinetic Equilibrium

The Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) is a ubiquitous physical process in ordinary fluids and plasmas, frequently observed also in space environments. In this paper, kinetic effects at proton scales in the nonlinear and turbulent stage of the KHI have been studied in magnetized collisionless plasma...
