Relativistic Electron Acceleration and the 'Ankle' Spectral Feature in Earth's Magnetotail Reconnection
Weijie Sun, Mitsuo Oka, Marit Ãieroset +14
Electrons are accelerated to high, non-thermal energies during explosive energy-release events in space, such as magnetic reconnection. However, the properties and acceleration mec…

Identification of coupled Landau and anomalous resonances in space plasmas
Jing-Huan Li, Xu-Zhi Zhou, Zhi-Yang Liu +10
Wave-particle resonance, a ubiquitous process in the plasma universe, occurs when resonant particles observe a constant wave phase to enable sustained energy transfer. Here, we pre…
