Modeling Kelvin-Helmholtz instability-driven turbulence with hybrid simulations of Alfvénic turbulence
Luca Franci, Julia E. Stawarz, Emanuele Papini +9
Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations of plasma turbulence generated by a Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) event at the Earth's magnetopause are compared with a high-resolution two-dim…
Reconnection from a Turbulence Perspective
S. Adhikari, M. A. Shay, T. N. Parashar +6
The spectral properties associated with laminar, anti-parallel reconnection are examined using a 2.5D kinetic particle in cell (PIC) simulation. Both the reconnection rate and the…
Challenges and the next transformative steps in understanding plasma turbulence from the perspective of multi-spacecraft measurements
Li-Jen Chen, Naoki Bessho, Jay A. Bookbinder +18
We have become heavily reliant on electrical technologies, from power grids to GPS to wireless communication. Any disruption of these systems will have severe global consequences.…
A Case for Electron-Astrophysics
Daniel Verscharen, Robert T. Wicks, Olga Alexandrova +27
A grand-challenge problem at the forefront of physics is to understand how energy is transported and transformed in plasmas. This fundamental research priority encapsulates the con…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] The essential role of multi-point measurements in turbulence investigations: the solar wind beyond single scale and beyond the Taylor Hypothesis
W. H. Matthaeus, R. Bandyopadhyay, M. R. Brown +46
This paper briefly reviews a number of fundamental measurements that need to be made in order to characterize turbulence in space plasmas such as the solar wind. It has long been k…
Observations of Magnetic Reconnection in the Transition Region of Quasi-Parallel Shocks
I. Gingell, S. J. Schwartz, J. P. Eastwood +15
Using observations of Earth's bow shock by the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, we show for the first time that active magnetic reconnection is occurring at current sheets embedd…
