Pezzi et al. [Astrophys. J. 834, 166 (2017)] is here extended by analyzing the features of the turbulence produced by the interaction of two colliding Alfvénic wave packets in a kinetic plasma. Although the approach based on the presence of linear modes features is still helpful in characterizing some low-energy fluctuations, other signatures, which go beyond the pure linear modes analysis, are recovered, such as the significant weakening of clear dispersion relations and the production of zero frequency fluctuations.GravitationCosmology & AstrophysicsPlasma Physicsjournal article10.1103/PhysRevE.96.0232015a391c996c5e1b5a034b8addhttps://journals.aps.org/pre/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevE.96.0232015a391c996c5e1b5a034b8add
