Thermodynamics of Shear Equilibration During Magnetic Reconnection Onset in Mixed-Equilibrium Current Sheets
Dominic Payne, Marc Swisdak, James Drake +1
Magnetic shear across the polarity inversion line (PIL) plays an important role in the explosive nature of reconnection onset and in the equilibration of current sheets, acting as…
Extended magnetic reconnection in kinetic plasma turbulence
Tak Chu Li, Yi-Hsin Liu, Yi Qi +1
Magnetic reconnection and plasma turbulence are ubiquitous processes important for laboratory, space and astrophysical plasmas. Reconnection has been suggested to play an important…
Magnetic Flux Transport Identification of Active Reconnection: MMS Observations in Earth's Magnetosphere
Yi Qi, Tak Chu Li, Christopher T. Russell +3
Magnetic reconnection plays an important role in converting energy while modifying field topology. This process takes place in varied plasma environments in which the transport of…
Identification of active magnetic reconnection using magnetic flux transport in plasma turbulence
Tak Chu Li, Yi-Hsin Liu, Yi Qi
Magnetic reconnection has been suggested to play an important role in the dynamics and energetics of plasma turbulence by spacecraft observations, simulations and theory over the p…
Three-Dimensional X-line Spreading in Asymmetric Magnetic Reconnection
Tak Chu Li, Yi-Hsin Liu, Michael Hesse +1
The spreading of the X-line out of the reconnection plane under a strong guide field is investigated using large-scale three-dimensional (3D) particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations in…
Collisionless energy transfer in kinetic turbulence: field-particle correlations in Fourier space
Tak Chu Li, Gregory G. Howes, Kristopher G. Klein +2
Turbulence is ubiquitously observed in nearly collisionless heliospheric plasmas, including the solar wind and corona and the Earth's magnetosphere. Understanding the collisionless…
