📝 Abstract

We perform a fully self-consistent 3-D numerical simulation for a compressible, dissipative magneto-plasma driven by large-scale perturbations, that contain a fairly broader spectrum of characteristic modes, ranging from largest scales to intermediate scales and down to the smallest scales, where the energy of the system are dissipated by collisional (Ohmic) and viscous dissipations. Additionally, our simulation includes nonlinear interactions amongst a wide range of fluctuations that are initialized with random spectral amplitudes, leading to the cascade of spectral energy in the inertial range spectrum, and takes into account large scale as well as small scale perturbation that may have been induced by the background plasma fluctuations, also the non adiabatic exchange of energy leading to the migration of energy from the energy containing modes or randomly injected energy driven by perturbations and further dissipated by the smaller scales. Besides demonstrating the comparative decays of total energy and dissipation rate of energy, our results show the existence of a perpendicular component of current, thus clearly confirming that the self-organized state is non-force free.

The layout design for the Journal of Plasma Physics has been implemented as a L A T E X 2 ε class file. The JPP class is based on the ARTICLE class as discussed in the L A T E X manual (2nd edition). Commands which differ from the standard L A T E X interface, or which are provided in addition to the standard interface, are explained in this guide. This guide is not a substitute for the L A T E X manual itself.

Note that the final printed version of papers will use the Monotype Modern typeface rather than the Computer Modern available to authors. Also, the measure in JPP class is different from L A T E X 2 ε article class. For these reasons line lengths and page breaks will change and authors should not insert hard breaks in their text.

The L A T E X document preparation system is a special version of the T E X typesetting program. L A T E X adds to T E X a collection of commands which allow the author to concentrate on the logical structure of the document rather than its visual layout.

L A T E X provides a consistent and comprehensive document preparation interface. L A T E X can automatically number equations, figures, tables, and list entries, as well as sections and subsections. Using this numbering system, bibliographic citations, page references and cross-references to any other numbered entity (e.g. section, equation, figure, list entry) are quite straightforward.

Use of L A T E X defaults will result in a pleasing uniformity of layout and font selection. Authors should resist the temptation to make ad hoc changes to these. Also avoid use of direct formatting unless really necessary. Papers will be edited as usual, and this process may be obstructed by the use of inserted line breaks, etc.

For general style issues, authors are referred to the ‘Preparation of manuscripts’ in the back cover of the journal. The language used in the journal is British English, and spelling should conform to this.

Use should be made of symbolic references (\ref) in order to protect against late changes of order, etc.

Authors who intend to submit a L A T E X article should obtain a copy of the JPP class file. This is available by anonymous FTP from ftp.cup.cam.ac.uk You will find the class file and instructions contained in a single zip archive jpp-cls.zip in the directory pub/texarchive/journals/latex/jpp-cls The readme.txt (which is the same directory) tells you how to unzip the jpp-cls.zip file. There may also be an ‘unpacked’ directory containing all of the files separately, in case of difficulty. If you cannot obtain the JPP files, use the standard article class, with the default ‘10pt’ option.

When submitting the final article, ensure that the following are included and are clearly labelled. (c) A copy of any user-defined macros.

(d) If you have used BibT E X, the .bib, .bbl and .bst files that were used.

(e) Any other files necessary to prepare the article for typesetting.

The files for the final article should be supplied on a PC or Macintosh disk. Please write on the disk what format it is, as this saves time. Submit the hardcopy and disk by post in the normal way.

The use of document classes allows a simple change of style (or style option) to transform the appearance of your document. The CUP JPP class file preserves the standard L A T E X interface such that any document which can be produced using the standard L A T E X ARTICLE class can also be produced with the JPP class. However, the measure (or width of text) is slightly different from that for ARTICLE; therefore line breaks will change and it is possible that equations may need re-setting.

First, copy the file jpp.cls and upmath.sty (see §2.2) into the correct subdirectory on your system. The JPP document style is implemented as a complete document class, and not a document class option. In order to use the JPP class, replace article by jpp in the \documentclass command at the beginning of your document: \documentclass{article} is replaced by \documentclass{jpp} Some of the standard document class options should be used. Author-defined macros should be inserted before \begin{document}, or in a separate file and should be included with the submission, see §5. Authors must not change any of the macro definitions or parameters in jpp.cls.

In general, the following standard document class options should not be used with the JPP class file:

• 10pt, 11pt and 12pt -unavailable;

• twoside is the default (oneside is disabled);

• onecolumn is the default (twocolumn is disabled);

• titlepage is not required and is disabled;

• fleqn and leqno should not be used, and are disabled.

The standard document class options should not be used with the JPP class:

• 10pt, 11pt, 12pt -unavailable.

• draft, twoside (no associated class file)twoside is the default.

• fleqn, leqno, titlepage, twocolumn -unavailable.

The following additional package (.sty) files are supplied in the JPP distribution:

• upmath -provides ‘upright’ Greek math characters. Requir
