Anomalous Electric Fields in Earth's Turbulent Magnetosheath: Insights From 3D Hybrid Simulations
Jeffersson A. Agudelo Rueda, Julia E. Stawarz, Luca Franci +3
In both collisional and collisionless plasmas the presence of a broad range of electromagnetic and plasma fluctuations provides anomalous electric fields that can be important for…
Shrinking the Haystack: One-Class Machine Learning Detection of Magnetosheath Current Sheets in MMS Burst Data
Deep Ghuge, Daniel J. Gershman, Vadim Uritsky +1
We present a morphology-first framework for narrowing the search for magnetic-reconnection candidates in Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) burst-mode data. The target is the small, s…
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…
UK White Paper on Magnetic Reconnection
Alexander J. B. Russell, James A. McLaughlin, Philippa Browning +25
Magnetic reconnection powers explosive releases of magnetic energy, heating and particle acceleration throughout the plasma universe. Knowledge of this universal process is vital t…
