Claims
temperature anisotropy with T⊥0 > T∥0 increases γmax/ω0 by factors of ∼1.5 over R≃1--10 R0, whereas temperature anisotropy with T∥0 > T⊥0 decreases γmax/ω0 at larger R.
The three chosen background expansion models (spherically symmetric adiabatic, multi-source constrained, and PSP-constrained with Parker spiral) accurately capture the radial evolution of beta and temperature anisotropy in the real near-Sun solar wind.
Temperature anisotropy raises the maximum growth rate of Alfvén wave parametric decay instability by factors of about 1.5 in the near-Sun solar wind for parallel beta below 0.1 when perpendicular temperature exceeds parallel temperature.
