Kinetic Turbulence in Collisionless High-Beta Plasmas

We present results from three-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations of Alfv\'enic turbulence in a high-beta, collisionless plasma. The key feature of such turbulence is the interplay between local wave--wave interactions between the fluctuations in the cascade and the non-local wave-particle interactions associated with kinetic micro-instabilities driven by anisotropy in the thermal pressure...
