Thermodynamics of Shear Equilibration During Magnetic Reconnection Onset in Mixed-Equilibrium Current Sheets
Dominic Payne, Marc Swisdak, James Drake +1
Magnetic shear across the polarity inversion line (PIL) plays an important role in the explosive nature of reconnection onset and in the equilibration of current sheets, acting as…

Probing Proton versus Electron Heating and Energization during Magnetic Reconnection
Zhiyu Yin, James F. Drake, Marc Swisdak
The mechanisms controlling the relative heating and energization of electrons and protons during magnetic reconnection are explored. Simulations are carried out with the kglobal mo…
