Energetics of kinetic reconnection in a three-dimensional null points cluster
Vyacheslav Olshevsky, Giovanni Lapenta, Stefano Markidis
We performed three-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations of magnetic reconnection with multiple magnetic null points. Magnetic field energy conversion into kinetic energy was ab…
