Dependence of Kinetic Plasma Turbulence on Plasma beta
  We study the effects of plasma \b{eta} (ratio of plasma pressure to magnetic
pressure) on the evolution of kinetic plasma turbulence using fully kinetic
particle-in-cell simulations of decaying turbulence. We find that the plasma
\b{eta} systematically affects spectra, measures of intermittency, decay rates
of turbulence fluctuations, and partitioning over different channels of energy
exchange More specifically, an increase in plasma \b{eta} leads to greater
total heating, with proton heating preferentially more than electrons.
Implications for achieving magnetosheath like temperature ratios are discussed.
