Direct Multipoint Observations Capturing the Reformation of a Supercritical Fast Magnetosonic Shock

D. L. Turner, L. B. Wilson, K. A. Goodrich +12

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…

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…

Observations of Electromagnetic Electron Holes and Evidence of Cherenkov Whistler Emission

Konrad Steinvall, Yuri V. Khotyaintsev, Daniel B. Graham +3

We report observations of electromagnetic electron holes (EHs). We use multi-spacecraft analysis to quantify the magnetic field contributions of three mechanisms: the Lorentz trans…

Sign singularity of the local energy transfer in space plasma turbulence

Luca Sorriso-Valvo, Gaetano De Vita, Federico Fraternale +18

In weakly collisional space plasmas, the turbulent cascade provides most of the energy that is dissipated at small scales by various kinetic processes. Understanding the characteri…

Turbulence-driven ion beams in the magnetospheric Kelvin-Helmholtz instability

Luca Sorriso-Valvo, Filomena Catapano, Alessandro Retinò +21

The description of the local turbulent energy transfer, and the high-resolution ion distributions measured by the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, together provide a formidable t…
