Determination of dispersion relations in quasi-stationary plasma turbulence using dual satellite data. Geophysical Research Letters 22: doi: 10.1029/95GL02543. issn: 0094-8276.

The joint frequency-wavenumber spectrum is one of the basic quantities for analyzing plasma turbulence. It is shown how the full spectrum can be recovered from wavefields measured by two or more satellites via spectral methods based on wavelet transforms. Compared to standard cross-correlation techniques, different branches in the dispersion relation can be resolved and quasi-stationary wavefields can be accessed. Using this new approach, low frequency magnetic field data from the AMPTE-UKS and AMPTE-IRM spacecraft are investigated and the impact of nonlinear processes on wave propagation at the Earth's foreshock is revealed. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1995.
