Observations of an Electron-cold Ion Component Reconnection at the Edge of an Ion-scale Antiparallel Reconnection at the Dayside Magnetopause
S. Q. Zhao, H. Zhang, Terry Z. Liu +11
Solar wind parameters play a dominant role in reconnection rate, which controls the solar wind-magnetosphere coupling efficiency at Earth's magnetopause. Besides, low-energy ions f…

Quantifying the Effect of Non-Larmor Motion of Electrons on the Pressure Tensor
H. Che, C. Schiff, G. Le +3
In space plasma, various effects of magnetic reconnection and turbulence cause the electron motion to significantly deviate from their Larmor orbits. Collectively these orbits affe…
