Dissipation measures in weakly-collisional plasmas
O. Pezzi, H. Liang, J. L. Juno +8
The physical foundations of the dissipation of energy and the associated heating in weakly collisional plasmas are poorly understood. Here, we compare and contrast several measures…
A Field-Particle Correlation Analysis of a Perpendicular Magnetized Collisionless Shock: I. Theory
Gregory G. Howes, James Juno, Jason M. TenBarge +3
Collisionless shocks play an important role in space and astrophysical plasmas by irreversibly converting the energy of the incoming supersonic plasma flows into other forms, inclu…
A Field-Particle Correlation Analysis of a Perpendicular Magnetized Collisionless Shock
James Juno, Gregory G. Howes, Jason M. TenBarge +5
Using the field-particle correlation technique, we examine the particle energization in a 1D-2V continuum Vlasov--Maxwell simulation of a perpendicular magnetized collisionless sho…
Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena in Solar and Heliospheric Plasmas
H. Ji, J. Karpen, A. Alt +105
Magnetic reconnection underlies many explosive phenomena in the heliosphere and in laboratory plasmas. The new research capabilities in theory/simulations, observations, and labora…
Diagnosing collisionless energy transfer using field-particle correlations: Alfven-Ion Cyclotron Turbulence
Kristopher G. Klein, Gregory G. Howes, Jason M. TenBarge +1
We apply field-particle correlations -- a technique that tracks the time-averaged velocity-space structure of the energy density transfer rate between electromagnetic fields and pl…
Noise-Induced Magnetic Field Saturation in Kinetic Simulations
J. Juno, M. Swisdak, J. M. TenBarge +2
Monte Carlo methods are often employed to numerically integrate kinetic equations, such as the particle-in-cell method for the plasma kinetic equation, but these methods suffer fro…
