Laboratory observation of ion acceleration via reflection off laser-produced magnetized collisionless shocks

Hui-bo Tang, Yu-fei, Hao +29

Fermi acceleration by collisionless shocks is believed to be the primary mechanism to produce high energy charged particles in the Universe,where charged particles gain energy succ…

Annihilation of Magnetic Islands at the Top of Solar Flare Loops

Yulei Wang, Xin Cheng, Mingde Ding +1

The dynamics of magnetic reconnection in the solar current sheet (CS) is studied by high-resolution 2.5-dimensional MHD simulation. With the commence of magnetic reconnection, a nu…

Intense cross-tail field-aligned currents in the plasma sheet at lunar distances

Sixue Xu, Andrei Runov, Anton Artemyev +2

Field-aligned currents in the Earth's magnetotail are traditionally associated with transient plasma flows and strong plasma pressure gradients in the near-Earth side. In this pape…

Global explicit particle-in-cell simulations of the nonstationary bow shock and magnetosphere

Zhongwei Yang, Can Huang, Ying D. Liu +4

We carry out two-dimensional global particle-in-cell simulations of the interaction between the solar wind and a dipole field to study the formation of the bow shock and magnetosph…

Impact of pickup ions on the shock front nonstationarity and energy dissipation of the heliospheric termination shock: Two-dimensional full particle simulations and comparison with Voyager 2 observations

Zhongwei Yang, Ying D. Liu, John D Richardson +3

The transition between the supersonic solar wind and the subsonic heliosheath, the termination shock (TS), was observed by Voyager 2 (V2) on 2007 August 31-September 1 at a distanc…

Plasmoid ejection and secondary current sheet generation from magnetic reconnection in laser-plasma interaction

Quan-Li Dong, Shou-Jun Wang, Quan-Ming Lu +21

Reconnection of the self-generated magnetic fields in laser-plasma interaction was first investigated experimentally by Nilson {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 255001 (2006)] by…

From Micro- to Macro-scales in the Heliosphere and Magnetospheres

Dastgeer Shaikh, I. S. Veselovsky, Q. M. Lu +1

From a broader perspective, the heliosphere and planetary magnetospheres provide a test bed to explore the plasma physics of the Universe. In particular, the underlying nonlinear c…
