Structure of energy flux densities in Earth's magnetotail reconnection regions: Bridging simulation and observation
Cara L. Waters, Jonathan P. Eastwood, Harry C. Lewis +5
Magnetic reconnection is important in both space and laboratory contexts because it changes the topology of magnetic fields and converts magnetic energy into particle energies. Est…
Simultaneous TRACERS and THEMIS Observations of Reversed Cusp Ion Dispersions and Dual-Lobe Reconnection
M. Øieroset, S. A. Fuselier, J. B. Bonnell +20
We present observations from two consecutive TRACERS-2 orbits through the northern low-altitude cusp. During the first crossing, TRACERS-2 observed reversed cusp ion dispersion and…
Scaling of Particle Heating in Shocks and Magnetic Reconnection
Mitsuo Oka, Tai D. Phan, Marit Øieroset +4
Particles are heated efficiently through energy conversion processes such as shocks and magnetic reconnection in collisionless plasma environments. While empirical scaling laws for…
Parker Solar Probe In-Situ Observations of Magnetic Reconnection Exhausts During Encounter 1
T. D. Phan, S. D. Bale, J. P. Eastwood +23
Magnetic reconnection in current sheets converts magnetic energy into particle energy. The process may play an important role in the acceleration and heating of the solar wind clos…
In-situ evidence of electron energization in the electron diffusion region of magnetotail reconnection
Mitsuo Oka, Tai Phan, Marit Oieroset +1
Magnetic reconnection is an explosive energy-release process in laboratory, space and astrophysical plasmas. While magnetic fields can `break' and `reconnect' in a very small regio…
