Teaching Using Immersion -- Explaining Magnetism and Eclipses in a Planetarium Dome

Patricia H Reiff, Carolyn Sumners

Previously we have shown that three-dimensional concepts are more readily learned in a three-dimensional context. Although VR headsets are growing in popularity, they only provide…

Multi-scale observation of magnetotail reconnection onset: 2. microscopic dynamics

K. J. Genestreti, C. Farrugia, S. Lu +23

We analyze the local dynamics of magnetotail reconnection onset using Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) data. In conjunction with MMS, the macroscopic dynamics of this event were cap…
