Statistical study of energy dissipation in magnetic structures during turbulent reconnection in the Earth's magnetotail

Rachel Wang, Hantao Ji, Adam Robbins +7

Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous plasma phenomenon that plays a critical role in particle heating and energization. During reconnection, the topology of magnetic field rearran…

Multi-scale coupling during magnetopause reconnection: the interface between the electron and ion diffusion regions

K. J. Genestreti, Y. -H. Liu, T. -D. Phan +15

Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) encountered the primary low-latitude magnetopause reconnection site when the inter-spacecraft separation exceeded the upstream ion inertial length.…

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…

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…
