Observation of Inertial-range Energy Cascade within a Reconnection Jet in Earth's Magnetotail
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Alexandros Chasapis, D. J. Gershman +6
Earth's magnetotail region provides a unique environment to study plasma turbulence. We investigate the turbulence developed in an exhaust produced by magnetic reconnection at the…

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.…

How the IMF Induces a Local Component During Northward IMF and Characteristic Timescales
P. Tenfjord, N. Østgaard, S. Haaland +7
We use the Lyon-Fedder-Mobarry global magnetohydrodynamics model to study the effects of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) component on the coupling between…
