Reconnection and particle acceleration in interacting flux ropes -- II. 3D effects on test particles in magnetically dominated plasmas

B. Ripperda, O. Porth, C. Xia +1

We analyze particle acceleration in explosive reconnection events in magnetically dominated proton-electron plasmas. Reconnection is driven by large-scale magnetic stresses in inte…
