A comparison of methods for finding magnetic nulls in simulations and in situ observations of space plasmas
Vyacheslav Olshevsky, David Pontin, Benjamin Williams +5
Magnetic nulls are ubiquitous in space plasmas, and are of interest as sites of localized energy dissipation or magnetic reconnection. As such, a number of methods have been propos…

First observation of magnetic flux rope inside electron diffusion region
Z. Z. Chen, H. S. Fu, Z. Wang +3
Magnrtic flux ropes (MFRs) play a crucial role during magnetic reconnection. They are believed to be primarily generated by tearing mode instabilities in the electron diffusion reg…
