{c}
<Vincenzo Carbone> is a physicist whose work connects <magnetohydrodynamic turbulence>, the <solar wind> and nonlinear statistical models. The European Geosciences Union's official 2025 medal citation identifies contributions to models of the <energy cascade>, the multiscale organization of fluctuations and <shell models of turbulence> applied to solar phenomena.<Lewis Fry Richardson Medal 2025: Vincenzo Carbone by European Geosciences Union>[scientific citation, cascade and shell-model contributions]{ref}
The modeling strategy represents interacting ranges of scale with a smaller dynamical system, making it possible to test how transfer toward smaller structures produces uneven <dissipation>. A useful question is whether a model matches several kinds of observations simultaneously: the distribution of event strengths, their timing and their scale dependence. His coauthored work with <Pierluigi Veltri> on <solar flare> timing supplies one such comparison.<Power Laws in Solar Flares: Self-Organized Criticality or Turbulence? by Guido Boffetta and others>[byline and abstract]{ref}
