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…
Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena throughout the Universe
H. Ji, A. Alt, S. Antiochos +97
This white paper summarizes major scientific challenges and opportunities in understanding magnetic reconnection and related explosive phenomena as a fundamental plasma process.
Challenges and the next transformative steps in understanding plasma turbulence from the perspective of multi-spacecraft measurements
Li-Jen Chen, Naoki Bessho, Jay A. Bookbinder +18
We have become heavily reliant on electrical technologies, from power grids to GPS to wireless communication. Any disruption of these systems will have severe global consequences.…
Fast Magnetic Reconnection Due to Anisotropic Electron Pressure
P. A. Cassak, R. N. Baylor, R. L. Fermo +5
A new regime of fast magnetic reconnection with an out-of-plane (guide) magnetic field is reported in which the key role is played by an electron pressure anisotropy described by t…
