The editorial discusses the significance of solar wind turbulence in heating and accelerating solar winds, as well as its role in space weather modeling. Recent advancements in computational power and spacecraft deployment have allowed for unprecedented studies on solar wind turbulence. The editorial highlights various studies on wave-wave interactions, magnetic reconnection, numerical simulations, and in-situ measurements by the Parker Solar Probe. Additionally, research on heavy-ion composition in the solar wind and interplanetary coronal mass ejections is discussed, with the aim of improving space weather prediction models.
