ISM Alfv'en cascade
ISM Alfven cascade: in the interstellar medium, Alfven turbulence follows Goldreich-Sridhar scaling E(k_perp) propto k_perp^{-5/3} with critical balance k_parallel propto k_perp^{2/3}, a magneto-turbulent cascade where both velocity and magnetic field participate.

Reading role
Use as Registry evidence for an existing Results surface.
Claim boundary
This page reports a Registry-backed internal result surface. It is not an external validation claim, a scientific consensus claim, or independent acceptance.
Curation rationale
- physics-facing terms: alfven, magnetic, turbulence
- candidate is better handled as evidence for an inferred existing public surface
