Transonic Turbulence and Density Fluctuations in the Near-Sun Solar Wind

We use in situ measurements from the first 19 encounters of Parker Solar Probe and the most recent five encounters of Solar Orbiter to study the evolution of the turbulent sonic Mach number M _t (the ratio of the amplitude of velocity fluctuations to the sound speed) with radial distance and its rel...
