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…
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…
Electron-Scale Dynamics of the Diffusion Region during Symmetric Magnetic Reconnection in Space
R. B. Torbert, J. L. Burch, T. D. Phan +46
Magnetic reconnection is an energy conversion process important in many astrophysical contexts including the Earth's magnetosphere, where the process can be investigated in-situ. H…
Generation of Electron Whistler Waves at the Mirror Mode Magnetic Holes: MMS Observations and PIC Simulation
Narges Ahmadi, Frederick Wilder, Robert Ergun +14
The Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission has observed electron whistler waves at the center and at the edges of magnetic holes in the dayside magnetosheath. The magnetic holes a…
