Velocity space origins of pressure-strain interaction in multi-population distributions and its application to magnetic reconnection

M. Hasan Barbhuiya, Paul A. Cassak, Sarah Conley +7

A forefront research question is how energy evolves in weakly collisional plasmas for which departures from local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) are significant. The standard appr…

Effects of Unequal Electron-Ion Plasma Beta on Pressure-Strain Interaction in Turbulent Plasmas

M. Hasan Barbhuiya, Subash Adhikari

A common occurrence in weakly collisional space plasmas is the unequal electron-ion temperatures. The pressure-strain interaction provides a mechanism-agnostic pathway for increasi…

Kinetic Scale Energy Budget in Turbulent Plasmas: Role of Electron to Ion Temperature Ratio

Subash Adhikari, M. Hasan Barbhuiya

The dissipation mechanisms in weakly collisional plasmas have been a longstanding topic of investigation, where significant progress has been made in recent years. A recent promisi…

Identifying the Growth Phase of Magnetic Reconnection using Pressure-Strain Interaction

M. Hasan Barbhuiya, Paul A. Cassak, Alex Chasapis +3

Magnetic reconnection often initiates abruptly and then rapidly progresses to a nonlinear quasi-steady state. While satellites frequently detect reconnection events, ascertaining w…

A Magnetic Analog of Pressure-Strain Interaction

M. Hasan Barbhuiya, P. A. Cassak

We study the evolution equation for magnetic energy density for a non-relativistic magnetized plasma in the (Lagrangian) reference frame comoving with the electron bulk velocity. A…

The Kinetic Analogue of the Pressure-Strain Interaction

Sarah A. Conley, James Juno, Jason M. TenBarge +4

Energy transport in weakly collisional plasma systems is often studied with fluid models and diagnostics. However, the applicability of fluid models is necessarily limited when col…
