Multi-scale observation of magnetotail reconnection onset: 2. microscopic dynamics
K. J. Genestreti, C. Farrugia, S. Lu +23
We analyze the local dynamics of magnetotail reconnection onset using Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) data. In conjunction with MMS, the macroscopic dynamics of this event were cap…
Multi-scale observation of magnetotail reconnection onset: 1. macroscopic dynamics
K. J. Genestreti, C. Farrugia, S. Lu +22
We analyze a magnetotail reconnection onset event on 3 July 2017 that was observed under otherwise quiescent magnetospheric conditions by a fortuitous conjunction of six space and…
Configuration of magnetotail current sheet prior to magnetic reconnection onset
Xin An, Anton Artemyev, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3
The magnetotail current sheet configuration determines magnetic reconnection properties that control the substorm onset, one of the most energetic phenomena in the Earth's magnetos…
Fast inverse transform sampling of non-Gaussian distribution functions in space plasmas
Xin An, Anton Artemyev, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3
Non-Gaussian distributions are commonly observed in collisionless space plasmas. Generating samples from non-Gaussian distributions is critical for the initialization of particle-i…
Suppression of reconnection in polarized, thin magnetotail current sheets: 2D simulations and implications
Xin An, Anton Artemyev, Vassilis Angelopoulos +3
Many in-situ spacecraft observations have demonstrated that magnetic reconnection in the Earth's magnetotail is largely controlled by the pre-reconnection current sheet configurati…
Two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation of magnetic reconnection in the downstream of a quasi-perpendicular shock
Quanming Lu, Zhongwei Yang, Huanyu Wang +4
In this paper, by performing a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation, we investigate magnetic reconnection in the downstream of a quasi-perpendicular shock. The shock is nons…
Fast Recursive Reconnection and the Hall effect: Hall-MHD Simulations
Chen Shi, Anna Tenerani, Marco Velli +1
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) theory and simulations have shown that reconnection is triggered via a fast "ideal" tearing instability in current sheets whose inverse aspect ratio decre…
Fermi acceleration of electrons inside foreshock transient cores
Terry Z. Liu, San Lu, Vassilis Angelopoulos +2
Foreshock transients upstream of Earth's bow shock have been recently observed to accelerate electrons to many times their thermal energy. How such acceleration occurs is unknown,…
Large-Scale Sidereal Anisotropy of Galactic Cosmic-Ray Intensity Observed by the Tibet Air Shower Array
The Tibet AS Gamma Collaboration, M. Amenomori
We present the large-scale sidereal anisotropy ofgalactic cosmic-ray intensity in the multi-TeV region observed with the Tibet-IIIair shower array during the period from 1999 throu…
A Northern Sky Survey for Steady TeV Gamma-Ray Point Sources Using the Tibet Air Shower Array
gamma Collaboration, M. Amenomori
Results on steady TeV -ray point source search using data taken from the Tibet HD (Feb. 1997 -- Sep. 1999) and Tibet III (Nov. 1999 -- Oct. 2001) arrays are presented. From $0^{…
