Laboratory evidence of electron pressure anisotropy driving plasmoid mediated magnetic reconnection
A. Sladkov, T. Waltenspiel, H. Ahmed +8
Plasmoid-driven magnetic reconnection in elongated current sheets is suspected to be an ubiquitous phenomenon in space and astrophysical plasmas, but the mechanisms driving its ons…
