Annick Gabrielle Pouquet (born 24 December 1946) is a computational plasma physicist specializing in plasma turbulence. She was awarded the 2020 Hannes Alfvén Prize for "fundamental contributions to quantifying energy transfer in magneto-fluid turbulence". She currently holds positions in the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics and National Center for Atmospheric Research at the University of Colorado Boulder.
The Politano–Pouquet relation, an exact scaling law for magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, was partly named after her.
