Spectral Properties and Energy Injection in Mercury's Magnetotail Current Sheet
Xinmin Li, Chuanfei Dong, Liang Wang +8
Mercury's magnetotail hosts a thin and highly dynamic current sheet (CS), where magnetic reconnection and strong fluctuations frequently occur. Here, we statistically analyze magne…
Revisiting Mars' Induced Magnetic Field and Clock Angle Departures under Real-Time Upstream Solar Wind Conditions
Zhihao Cheng, Chi Zhang, Chuanfei Dong +5
Mars lacks a global intrinsic dipole magnetic field, but its interaction with the solar wind generates a global induced magnetosphere. Until now, most studies have relied on single…
Modeling Atmospheric Ion Escape from Kepler-1649 b and c over Time
Haitao Li, Chuanfei Dong, Lianghai Xie +15
Rocky planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are prime targets for atmospheric characterization, yet their long-term evolution under intense stellar winds and high-energy radiation remains…
Magnetic Field and Plasma Asymmetries Between the Martian Quasi-Perpendicular and Quasi-Parallel Magnetosheaths
Abigail Tadlock, Chuanfei Dong, Chi Zhang +3
The Martian magnetosheath acts as a conduit for mass and energy transfer between the upstream solar wind and its induced magnetosphere. However, our understanding of its global pro…
Observation of a Knotted Electron Diffusion Region in Earth's Magnetotail Reconnection
Xinmin Li, Chuanfei Dong, Hantao Ji +6
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process that alters the magnetic field topology and releases magnetic energy. Most numerical simulations and spacecraft observations a…
Machine-learning heat flux closure for multi-moment fluid modeling of nonlinear Landau damping
Ziyu Huang, Chuanfei Dong, Liang Wang
Nonlinear plasma physics problems are usually simulated through comprehensive modeling of phase space. The extreme computational cost of such simulations has motivated the developm…
