  A numerical simulation of kinetic plasma turbulence is performed to assess
the applicability of critical balance to kinetic, dissipation scale turbulence.
The analysis is performed in the frequency domain to obviate complications
inherent in performing a local analysis of turbulence. A theoretical model of
dissipation scale critical balance is constructed and compared to simulation
results, and excellent agreement is found. This result constitutes the first
evidence of critical balance in a kinetic turbulence simulation and provides
evidence of an anisotropic turbulence cascade extending into the dissipation
range. We also perform an Eulerian frequency analysis of the simulation data
and compare it to the results of a previous study of magnetohydrodynamic
turbulence simulations.
