Scientific paper

Using incompressible magnetohydrodynamics, information on the nature of the MHD turbulence observed in the trailing edges of high velocity streams in the solar wind was derived. This turbulence is characterized to a good degree, by the absence of nonlinear wave interactions. The turbulence is a mixture of modes with polarization of Alfvenic and slow magnetosonic types. A theoretical model of MHD turbulence, satisfying some observational constraints, is used to calculate a variance matrix and interpret the main results of the minimum variance analysis of magnetic data.
