Weak Turbulence in Astrophysics — •Felix Spanier¹ and Rami Vainio² — ¹Lehrstuhl für Astronomie, Universität Würzburg, 97074 Würzburg — ²Dept. of Physics, University of Helsinki, Finland

In astrophysical jets, like in AGN, but also in the solar environment weak turbulence may play an important role due to the high background fields. The evolution of weak turbulence maybe best described by three-wave interaction. We present results from three-wave interaction studies in the kinetic and dispersive regime and their influence on the particle acceleration.
