MMS direct observations of kinetic-scale shock self-reformation
Zhongwei Yang, Ying D. Liu, Andreas Johlander +6
Studies of shocks have long suggested that a shock can undergo cyclically self-reformation in a time scale of ion cyclotron period. This process has been proposed as a primary mech…

Global explicit particle-in-cell simulations of the nonstationary bow shock and magnetosphere
Zhongwei Yang, Can Huang, Ying D. Liu +4
We carry out two-dimensional global particle-in-cell simulations of the interaction between the solar wind and a dipole field to study the formation of the bow shock and magnetosph…

BGK Electron Solitary Waves Reexamined
Li-Jen Chen, George K. Parks
This paper reexamines the physical roles of trapped and passing electrons in electron Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) solitary waves, also called the BGK phase space electron holes…
