Notes. The columns list the index and date of the MMS intervals we used, the average energy transfer rates measured using LPDE (εLPDE), and the isotropic assumption (εiso), the angle formed between the average velocity and magnetic field vectors (θVB), the number of estimates used for LPDE (NLPDE), the range of scales spanned by the MMS configuration (RMMS), and the scale at which the isotropic transfer rate is evaluated (Riso). The MMS separations are always smaller than the di.
