Statistical Analysis of High-frequency Whistler Waves at Earth's Bow Shock: Further Support for Stochastic Shock Drift Acceleration
Takanobu Amano, Miki Masuda, Mitsuo Oka +3
We statistically investigate high-frequency whistler waves (with frequencies higher than % of the local elect ron cyclotron frequency) at Earth's bow shock using Magnetos…
Earth's Alfvén wings driven by the April 2023 Coronal Mass Ejection
Li-Jen Chen, Daniel Gershman, Brandon Burkholder +33
We report a rare regime of Earth's magnetosphere interaction with sub-Alfvénic solar wind in which the windsock-like magnetosphere transforms into one with Alfvén wings. In the mag…
Unveiling plasma energization and energy transport in the Earth Magnetospheric System: the need for future coordinated multiscale observations
A. Retino, L. Kepko, H. Kucharek +31
Energetic plasma is everywhere in the Universe. The terrestrial Magnetospheric System is a key case where direct measures of plasma energization and energy transport can be made in…
Thin current sheet behind the dipolarization front
Nakamura, R., Baumjohann +25
We report a unique conjugate observation of fast flows and associated current sheet disturbances in the near-Earth magnetotail by MMS (Magnetospheric Multiscale) and Cluster preced…
Whistler waves observed by Solar Orbiter / RPW between 0.5 AU and 1 AU
M. Kretzschmar, T. Chust, V. Krasnoselskikh +29
The goal of our study is to detect and characterize the electromagnetic waves that can modify the electron distribution functions, with a special attention to whistler waves. We an…
3D cylindrical BGK model of electron phase-space holes with finite velocity and polarization drift
Gaëtan Gauthier, Thomas Chust, Olivier Le Contel +1
Nonlinear electron kinetic structures are regularly observed in space and experimental magnetized plasmas, called electron phase-space holes (EHs). The existence of EHs is conditio…

Using multipoint Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations in an unusual string-of-pearls configuration, we examine in detail observations of the reformation of a fast magnetoso…
The structure of a perturbed magnetic reconnection electron diffusion region
G. Cozzani, Yu. V. Khotyaintsev, D. B. Graham +9
We report in situ observations of an electron diffusion region (EDR) and adjacent separatrix region. We observe significant magnetic field oscillations near the lower hybrid freque…
In situ evidence of ion acceleration between consecutive reconnection jet fronts
Filomena Catapano, Alessandro Retino, Gaetano Zimbardo +21
Processes driven by unsteady reconnection can efficiently accelerate particles in many astrophysical plasmas. An example are the reconnection jet fronts in an outflow region. We pr…
Automatic classification of plasma regions in near-Earth space with supervised machine learning: application to Magnetospheric Multi Scale 2016-2019 observations
Hugo Breuillard, Romain Dupuis, Alessandro Retino +3
The proper classification of plasma regions in near-Earth space is crucial to perform unambiguous statistical studies of fundamental plasma processes such as shocks, magnetic recon…
