Hybrid-Kinetic Approach: Inertial Electrons
Neeraj Jain, Patricio A. Muñoz, Jörg Büchner
Hybrid-kinetic simulations describe ion-scale kinetic phenomena in space plasmas by considering ions kinetically, i.e. as particles, while electrons are modelled as a fluid. Most o…
Turbulent transport in 2D collisionless guide field reconnection
P. A. Muñoz, J. Büchner, P. Kilian
Transport in collisionless plasmas is usually called anomalous, being due to the interaction between the particles and the self-generated turbulence by their collective interaction…
Non-Maxwellian electron distribution functions due to self-generated turbulence in collisionless guide-field reconnection
P. A. Muñoz, J. Büchner
Non-Maxwellian electron velocity space distribution functions (EVDF) are useful signatures of plasma conditions and non-local consequences of collisionless magnetic reconnection. I…
Instabilities of collisionless current sheets revisited: the role of anisotropic heating
P. A. Muñoz, P. Kilian, J. Büchner
In this work, we investigate the influence of the anisotropic heating on the spontaneous instability and evolution of thin Harris-type collisionless current sheets, embedded in ant…
