On the deviation from Maxwellian of the ion velocity distribution functions in the turbulent magnetosheath
Silvia Perri, D. Perrone, E. Yordanova +20
The degree of deviation from the thermodynamic equilibrium in the ion velocity distribution functions (VDFs), measured by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission in the Earth's…
Electron-Scale Dynamics of the Diffusion Region during Symmetric Magnetic Reconnection in Space
R. B. Torbert, J. L. Burch, T. D. Phan +46
Magnetic reconnection is an energy conversion process important in many astrophysical contexts including the Earth's magnetosphere, where the process can be investigated in-situ. H…
Solar Wind Turbulence Studies using MMS Fast Plasma Investigation Data
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, A. Chasapis, R. Chhiber +17
Studies of solar wind turbulence traditionally employ high-resolution magnetic field data, but high-resolution measurements of ion and electron moments have been possible only rece…
MMS Observations of Beta-Dependent Constraints on Ion Temperature-Anisotropy in Earth's Magnetosheath
Bennett A. Maruca, A. Chasapis, S. P. Gary +15
Protons (ionized hydrogen) in the solar wind frequently exhibit distinct temperatures ( and ) perpendicular and parallel to the plasma's background ma…
Incompressive Energy Transfer in the Earth's Magnetosheath: Magnetospheric Multiscale Observations
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, A. Chasapis, R. Chhiber +14
Using observational data from the \emph{Magnetospheric Multiscale} (MMS) Mission in the Earth's magnetosheath, we estimate the energy cascade rate using different techniques within…
Separator Reconnection at Earth's Dayside Magnetopause: MMS Observations Compared to Global Simulations
Natalia Buzulukova, John Dorelli, Alex Glocer
We compare a global high resolution resistive magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulation of Earth's magnetosphere with observations from the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) constellatio…
