Magnetopause reconnection and indents induced by foreshock turbulence
Li-Jen Chen, Jonathan Ng, Yuri Omelchenko +1
Based on global hybrid simulation results, we predict that foreshock turbulence can reach the magnetopause and lead to reconnection as well as Earth-sized indents. Both the interpl…
Electron acceleration by magnetosheath jet-driven bow waves
Terry Z. Liu, Heli Hietala, Vassilis Angelopoulos +2
Magnetosheath jets are localized fast flows with enhanced dynamic pressure. When they supermagnetosonically compress the ambient magnetosheath plasma, a bow wave or shock can form…
Statistical study of magnetosheath jet-driven bow waves
Terry Z. Liu, Heli Hietala, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3
When a magnetosheath jet (localized dynamic pressure enhancements) compresses ambient magnetosheath at a (relative) speed faster than the local magnetosonic speed, a bow wave or sh…
Diagnosing numerical Cherenkov instabilities in relativistic plasma simulations based on general meshes
D. -Y. Na, J. L. Nicolini, R. Lee +3
Numerical Cherenkov radiation (NCR) or instability is a detrimental effect frequently found in electromagnetic particle-in-cell (EM-PIC) simulations involving relativistic plasma b…
Relativistic Extension of a Charge-Conservative Finite Element Solver for Time-Dependent Maxwell-Vlasov Equations
D. Y. Na, H. Moon, Y. A. Omelchenko +1
In many problems involving particle accelerators and relativistic plasmas, the accurate modeling of relativistic particle motion is essential for accurate physical predictions. Her…
