Influence of the dissipation mechanism on collisionless magnetic reconnection in symmetric and asymmetric current layers
Nicolas Aunai, Michael Hesse, Carrie Black +2
Numerical studies implementing different versions of the collisionless Ohm's law have shown a reconnection rate insensitive to the nature of the non-ideal mechanism occuring at the…
Comparison between hybrid and fully kinetic models of asymmetric magnetic reconnection: coplanar and guide field configurations
Nicolas Aunai, Michael Hesse, Seiji Zenitani +4
Magnetic reconnection occurring in collisionless environments is a multi-scale process involving both ion and electron kinetic processes. Because of their small mass, the electron…
The inner structure of collisionless magnetic reconnection: The electron-frame dissipation measure and Hall fields
Seiji Zenitani, Michael Hesse, Alex Klimas +2
It was recently proposed that the electron-frame dissipation measure, the energy transfer from the electromagnetic field to plasmas in the electron's rest frame, identifies the dis…
