Electron-Scale Dynamics of the Diffusion Region during Symmetric Magnetic Reconnection in Space
R. B. Torbert, J. L. Burch, T. D. Phan +46
Magnetic reconnection is an energy conversion process important in many astrophysical contexts including the Earth's magnetosphere, where the process can be investigated in-situ. H…
The O/O ratio in Water in the Coma of Comet 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko measured with the Rosetta / ROSINA Double-Focusing Mass Spectrometer
Isaac R. H. G. Schroeder, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +11
The European Space Agency (ESA) spacecraft Rosetta accompanied the Jupiter-family comet (JFC) 67P / Churyumov-Gerasimenko for over two years along its trajectory through the inner…
How accurately can we measure the reconnection rate for the MMS diffusion region event of 2017-07-11?
Kevin J. Genestreti, Takuma Nakamura, Rumi Nakamura +8
We investigate the accuracy with which the reconnection electric field can be determined from in-situ plasma data. We study the magnetotail electron diffusion region observed…
A nearly continuous observation of the equatorial plasmasphere from the inner radiation belt to near a magnetopause reconnection site
Kevin J. Genestreti, Stephen A. Fuselier, John C. Foster +4
On 22 October 2015, VAP and MMS obtained near-continuous observations of the full radial extent of the duskside equatorial plasmasphere and plume. The plume is evident in in situ p…
Krypton isotopes and noble gas abundances in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Martin Rubin, Kathrin Altwegg, Hans Balsiger +24
The ROSINA mass spectrometer DFMS on board ESA's Rosetta spacecraft detected the major isotopes of the noble gases argon, krypton, and xenon in the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gera…
