Electron Acceleration during Macroscale Magnetic Reconnection
Harry Arnold, James Drake, Marc Swisdak +8
The first self-consistent simulations of electron acceleration during magnetic reconnection in a macroscale system are presented. Consistent with solar flare observations the spect…
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.
The Reduction of Magnetic Reconnection Outflow Jets to Sub-Alfvénic Speeds
Colby C. Haggerty, Michael A. Shay, Alexandros Chasapis +5
The outflow velocity of jets produced by collisionless magnetic reconnection is shown to be reduced by the ion exhaust temperature in simulations and observations. We derive a scal…
Magnetosperic Multiscale (MMS) observation of plasma velocity-space cascade: Hermite representation and theory
S. Servidio, A. Chasapis, W. H. Matthaeus +10
Plasma turbulence is investigated using high-resolution ion velocity distributions measured by the Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission (MMS) in the Earth's magnetosheath. The particl…
