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…
3D Magnetic Reconnection with a spatially confined X-line extent -- Implications for Dipolarizing Flux Bundles and the Dawn-Dusk Asymmetry
Yi-Hsin Liu, Tak Chu Li, Michael Hesse +5
Using 3D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, we study magnetic reconnection with the x-line being spatially confined in the current direction. We include thick current layers to pr…
