Electron acceleration and thermalization at magnetotail separatrices
C. Norgren, M. Hesse, P. Tenfjord +8
In this study we use the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission to investigate the electron acceleration and thermalization occurring along the magnetic reconnection separatrices…

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…

Electron Heating by Debye-Scale Turbulence in Guide-Field Reconnection
Yu. V. Khotyaintsev, D. B. Graham, K. Steinvall +14
We report electrostatic Debye-scale turbulence developing within the diffusion region of asymmetric magnetopause reconnection with moderate guide field using observations by the Ma…
