Electron-Scale Dynamics of the Diffusion Region during Symmetric Magnetic Reconnection in Space

R. B. Torbert, J. L. Burch, T. D. Phan +46

Magnetic reconnection is an energy conversion process important in many astrophysical contexts including the Earth's magnetosphere, where the process can be investigated in-situ. H…

Kinetic range spectral features of cross-helicity using MMS

Tulasi N. Parashar, Alexandros Chasapis, Riddhi Bandyopadhyay +13

We study spectral features of ion velocity and magnetic field correlations in the solar wind and in the magnetosheath using data from the Magnetospheric Multi-Scale (MMS) spacecraf…

How accurately can we measure the reconnection rate for the MMS diffusion region event of 2017-07-11?

Kevin J. Genestreti, Takuma Nakamura, Rumi Nakamura +8

We investigate the accuracy with which the reconnection electric field can be determined from in-situ plasma data. We study the magnetotail electron diffusion region observed…

Solar Wind Turbulence Studies using MMS Fast Plasma Investigation Data

Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, A. Chasapis, R. Chhiber +17

Studies of solar wind turbulence traditionally employ high-resolution magnetic field data, but high-resolution measurements of ion and electron moments have been possible only rece…

Incompressive Energy Transfer in the Earth's Magnetosheath: Magnetospheric Multiscale Observations

Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, A. Chasapis, R. Chhiber +14

Using observational data from the \emph{Magnetospheric Multiscale} (MMS) Mission in the Earth's magnetosheath, we estimate the energy cascade rate using different techniques within…

Quantifying the Effect of Non-Larmor Motion of Electrons on the Pressure Tensor

H. Che, C. Schiff, G. Le +3

In space plasma, various effects of magnetic reconnection and turbulence cause the electron motion to significantly deviate from their Larmor orbits. Collectively these orbits affe…
