Electron acceleration in three-dimensional magnetic reconnection with a guide field
J. T. Dahlin, J. F. Drake, M. Swisdak
Kinetic simulations of 3D collisionless magnetic reconnection with a guide field show a dramatic enhancement of energetic electron production when compared with 2D systems. In the…

Fast Magnetic Reconnection Due to Anisotropic Electron Pressure
P. A. Cassak, R. N. Baylor, R. L. Fermo +5
A new regime of fast magnetic reconnection with an out-of-plane (guide) magnetic field is reported in which the key role is played by an electron pressure anisotropy described by t…
