Comparative study of forward and backward test-kinetic simulation approaches
Gabriel Voitcu, Marius Echim, Richard Marchand
In this paper we perform a comparative study of the forward and backward Liouville mapping applied to the modeling of ring-shaped and non-gyrotropic velocity distribution functions…
Ring-shaped velocity distribution functions in energy-dispersed structures formed at the boundaries of a proton stream injected into a transverse magnetic field: Test-kinetic results
Gabriel Voitcu, Marius Echim
In this paper, we discuss the formation of ring-shaped and gyro-phase restricted velocity distribution functions (VDFs) at the edges of a cloud of protons injected into non-uniform…
Transport and entry of plasma clouds/jets across transverse magnetic discontinuities: Three-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell simulations
Gabriel Voitcu, Marius Echim
In this paper we use three-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell simulations to investigate the interaction of a small-Larmor radius plasma cloud/jet with a transverse non-u…
Turbulence-generated proton-scale structures in the terrestrial magnetosheath
Zoltán Vörös, Emiliya Yordanova, Marius M. Echim +2
Recent results of numerical magnetohydrodynamic simulations suggest that in collisionless space plasmas turbulence can spontaneously generate thin current sheets. These coherent st…
