Global Ten-Moment Multifluid Simulations of the Solar Wind Interaction with Mercury: From the Planetary Conducting Core to the Dynamic Magnetosphere
Chuanfei Dong, Liang Wang, Ammar Hakim +4
For the first time, we explore the tightly coupled interior-magnetosphere system of Mercury by employing a three-dimensional ten-moment multifluid model. This novel fluid model inc…
Drift instabilities in thin current sheets using a two-fluid model with pressure tensor effects
J. Ng, A. Hakim, J. Juno +1
The integration of kinetic effects in fluid models is important for global simulations of the Earth's magnetosphere. We use a two-fluid ten moment model, which includes the pressur…
An extended MHD study of the 16 October 2015 MMS diffusion region crossing
J. M. TenBarge, J. Ng, J. Juno +3
The Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission has given us unprecedented access to high cadence particle and field data of magnetic reconnection at Earth's magnetopause. MMS first pa…
Using the maximum entropy distribution to describe electrons in reconnecting current sheets
Jonathan Ng, Ammar Hakim, Amitava Bhattacharjee
Particle distributions in weakly collisional environments such as the magnetosphere have been observed to show deviations from the Maxwellian distribution. These can often be repro…
Electron Physics in 3D Two-Fluid Ten-Moment Modeling of Ganymede's Magnetosphere
Liang Wang, Kai Germaschewski, Ammar Hakim +3
We studied the role of electron physics in 3D two-fluid 10-moment simulation of the Ganymede's magnetosphere. The model captures non-ideal physics like the Hall effect, the electro…
