Astrophysical explosions revisited: collisionless coupling of debris to magnetized plasma
Ari Le, Dan Winske, Adam Stanier +4
The coupling between a rapidly expanding cloud of ionized debris and an ambient magnetized plasma is revisited with a hybrid (kinetic ion/fluid electron) simulation code that allow…

Laboratory verification of electron-scale reconnection regions modulated by a three-dimensional instability
S. Greess, J. Egedal, A. Stanier +9
During magnetic reconnection in collisionless space plasma, the electron fluid decouples from the magnetic field within narrow current layers, and theoretical models for this proce…

A drift kinetic model for the expander region of a magnetic mirror
Blake A. Wetherton, Ari Le, Jan Egedal +4
We present a drift kinetic model for the free expansion of a thermal plasma out of a magnetic nozzle. This problem relates to plasma space propulsion systems, natural environments…
