Simultaneous Proton and Electron Energization during Macroscale Magnetic Reconnection
Zhiyu Yin, James F. Drake, Marc Swisdak
The results of simulations of magnetic reconnection accompanied by electron and proton heating and energization in a macroscale system are presented. Both species form extended pow…
Simulation Models for Exploring Magnetic Reconnection
Michael Shay, Subash Adhikari, Naoki Beesho +22
Simulations have played a critical role in the advancement of our knowledge of magnetic reconnection. However, due to the inherently multiscale nature of reconnection, it is imposs…
Earth's Alfvén wings driven by the April 2023 Coronal Mass Ejection
Li-Jen Chen, Daniel Gershman, Brandon Burkholder +33
We report a rare regime of Earth's magnetosphere interaction with sub-Alfvénic solar wind in which the windsock-like magnetosphere transforms into one with Alfvén wings. In the mag…
A Computational Model for Ion and Electron Energization during Macroscale Magnetic Reconnection
Zhiyu Yin, J. F. Drake, Marc Swisdak
A set of equations are developed that extend the macroscale magnetic reconnection simulation model kglobal to include particle ions. The extension from earlier versions of kglobal,…
