Are regions essential for particle injection in relativistic magnetic reconnection?
Omar French, Fan Guo, Xiaocan Li +4
During relativistic magnetic reconnection, X-points ( regions at vanishing guide field) have been proposed to play an essential role in injecting particles into the nonthermal…
Comment on "Nonideal Fields Solve the Injection Problem in Relativistic Reconnection"
Fan Guo, Xiaocan Li, Omar French +7
Recently, Sironi (PRL, 128, 145102; S22) reported the correlation between particles accelerated into high energy and their crossings of regions with electric field larger than magn…
Magnetic Energy Release, Plasma Dynamics, and Particle Acceleration during Relativistic Turbulent Magnetic Reconnection
Fan Guo, Xiaocan Li, William Daughton +5
In strongly magnetized astrophysical plasma systems, magnetic reconnection is believed to be a primary process during which explosive energy release and particle acceleration occur…
Recent Progress on Particle Acceleration and Reconnection Physics during Magnetic Reconnectionin the Magnetically-dominated Relativistic Regime
Fan Guo, Yi-Hsin Liu, Xiaocan Li +3
Magnetic reconnection in strongly magnetized astrophysical plasma environments is believed to be the primary process for fast energy release and particle energization. Currently th…
Determining the Dominant Acceleration Mechanism during Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection in Large-scale Systems
Fan Guo, Xiaocan Li, William Daughton +5
While a growing body of research indicates that relativistic magnetic reconnection is a prodigious source of particle acceleration in high-energy astrophysical systems, the dominan…
A model of global magnetic reconnection rate in relativistic collisionless plasmas
Yi-Hsin Liu, Michael Hesse, Fan Guo +2
A model of global magnetic reconnection rate in relativistic collisionless plasmas is developed and validated by the fully kinetic simulation. Through considering the force balance…
