Spreading of magnetic reconnection by electron scale dispersive waves

Neeraj Jain, Joerg Buechner

We show that on electron scales a patch of the localized magnetic reconnection spreads bi-directionally in a wave like fashion when an external guide-magnetic field in the directio…

Nonlinear oscillations and waves in multi-species cold plasmas

Prabal Singh Verma

The spatio-temporal evolution of nonlinear oscillations in multi-species plasma is revisited to provide more insight into the physics of phase mixing by constructing two sets of no…

A new hybrid code (CHIEF) implementing the inertial electron fluid equation without approximation

P. A. Muñoz, N. Jain, P. Kilian +1

We present a new hybrid algorithm implemented in the code CHIEF (Code Hybrid with Inertial Electron Fluid) for simulations of electron-ion plasmas. The algorithm treats the ions ki…

Plasma Waves as a Benchmark Problem

Patrick Kilian, Patricio A. Muñoz, Cedric Schreiner +1

A large number of wave modes exist in a magnetized plasma. Their properties are determined by the interaction of particles and waves. In a simulation code, the correct treatment of…

Activation of MHD reconnection on ideal timescales

S. Landi, E. Papini, L. Del Zanna +2

Magnetic reconnection in laboratory, space and astrophysical plasmas is often invoked to explain explosive energy release and particle acceleration. However, the timescales involve…

Turbulent transport in 2D collisionless guide field reconnection

P. A. Muñoz, J. Büchner, P. Kilian

Transport in collisionless plasmas is usually called anomalous, being due to the interaction between the particles and the self-generated turbulence by their collective interaction…
