Matthaeus, W.H., Dmitruk, P., Smith, D., Ghosh, S. and Oughton, S. (2003). Impact of Hall effect on energy decay in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Geophysical Research Letters 30: doi: 10.1029/2003GL017949. issn: 0094-8276.

We examine numerically the influence of Hall effect corrections to Ohm's law upon the decay of homogeneous compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence and conclude that there are no significant differences in global decay rate associated with the Hall effect. This affirms expectations that energy decay is controlled by the large-scale eddies.
