| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of the present study is to discuss contributions of nonlinear evolution of Alfven waves to generation of developed magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in the solar wind plasma. We derived a theoretical model including both ion acoustic waves and ion kinetic effects and carried out direct numerical simulations of the resultant model. Numerical results show that ion Landau damping effects suppress the excitation of obliquely propagating daughter waves. On the other hand, obliquely propagating waves can be dominant, since ion cyclotron damping suppress the growth of parallel higher wavenumber modes. We also indicated thermodynamic properties including effects of wave dynamics in the coarse-grained scale / ion kinetic effects.
