Electron and ion heating by whistler turbulence: Three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations

Three‐dimensional particle‐in‐cell simulations of decaying whistler turbulence are carried out on a collisionless, homogeneous, magnetized, electron‐ion plasma model. The simulations use an initial ensemble of relatively long wavelength whistler modes with a broad range of initial propagation direct...
