The inner structure of collisionless magnetic reconnection: The electron-frame dissipation measure and Hall fields
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas +2
It was recently proposed that the electron-frame dissipation measure, the energy transfer from the electromagnetic field to plasmas in the electron's rest frame, identifies the dis…
New Measure of the Dissipation Region in Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas +1
A new measure to identify a small-scale dissipation region in collisionless magnetic reconnection is proposed. The energy transfer from the electromagnetic field to plasmas in the…
Fluid and Magnetofluid Modeling of Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas
The fluid-scale evolution of relativistic magnetic reconnection is investigated by using two-fluid and magnetofluid simulation models. Relativistic two-fluid simulations demonstrat…
Resistive Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas
Resistive relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (RRMHD) simulations are applied to investigate the system evolution of relativistic magnetic reconnection. A time-split Harten--Lan--van…
Scaling of the Anomalous Boost in Relativistic Jet Boundary Layer
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas
We investigate the one-dimensional interaction of a relativistic jet and an external medium. Relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations show an anomalous boost of the jet fluid i…
Relativistic Two-fluid Simulations of Guide Field Magnetic Reconnection
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas
The nonlinear evolution of relativistic magnetic reconnection in sheared magnetic configuration (with a guide field) is investigated by using two-dimensional relativistic two-fluid…
