Hybrid-VPIC: an Open-Source Kinetic/Fluid Hybrid Particle-in-Cell Code

Ari Le, Adam Stanier, Lin Yin +3

Hybrid-VPIC is an extension of the open-source high-performance particle-in-cell (PIC) code VPIC incorporating hybrid kinetic ion/fluid electron solvers. This paper describes the m…

The Force Balance of Electrons During Kinetic Anti-parallel Magnetic Reconnection

J. Egedal, H. Gurram, S. Greess +2

Fully kinetic simulations are applied to the study of 2D anti-parallel reconnection, elucidating the dynamics by which the electron fluid maintains force balance within both the el…

Kinetic Simulations Verifying Reconnection Rates Measured in the Laboratory, Spanning the Ion-Coupled to Near Electron-Only Regimes

Samuel Greess, Jan Egedal, Adam Stanier +6

The rate of reconnection characterizes how quickly flux and mass can move into and out of the reconnection region. In the Terrestrial Reconnection EXperiment (TREX), the rate at wh…

Multi-species Ion Acceleration in 3D Magnetic Reconnection with Hybrid-kinetic Simulations

Qile Zhang, Fan Guo, William Daughton +4

Magnetic reconnection drives multi-species particle acceleration broadly in space and astrophysics. We perform the first 3D hybrid simulations (fluid electrons, kinetic ions) that…

Hybrid codes (massless electron fluid)

D. Winske, Homa Karimabadi, Ari Le +3

Hybrid codes are widely used to model ion-scale phenomena in space plasmas. Hybrid codes differ from full particle (PIC) codes in that the electrons are modeled as a fluid that is…

Magnetic reconnection in the era of exascale computing and multiscale experiments

Hantao Ji, William Daughton, Jonathan Jara-Almonte +3

Astrophysical plasmas have the remarkable ability to preserve magnetic topology, which inevitably gives rise to the accumulation of magnetic energy within stressed regions includin…
