In situ evidence of ion acceleration between consecutive reconnection jet fronts
Filomena Catapano, Alessandro Retino, Gaetano Zimbardo +21
Processes driven by unsteady reconnection can efficiently accelerate particles in many astrophysical plasmas. An example are the reconnection jet fronts in an outflow region. We pr…
Estimation of the electron density from spacecraft potential during high frequency electric field fluctuations
O. W. Roberts, R. Nakamura, K. Torkar +10
Spacecraft potential has often been used to infer electron density with much higher time resolution than is typically possible with plasma instruments. However, recently two studie…
Direct Measurement of the Solar-Wind Taylor Microscale using MMS Turbulence Campaign Data
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, William H. Matthaeus, Alexandros Chasapis +7
Using the novel Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission data accumulated during the 2019 MMS Solar Wind Turbulence Campaign, we calculate the Taylor microscale o…
Interplay of Turbulence and Proton-Microinstability Growth in Space Plasmas
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Ramiz A. Qudsi, William H. Matthaeus +13
Numerous prior studies have shown that as proton beta increases, a narrower range of proton temperature anisotropy values is observed. This effect has often been ascribed to the ac…
Ion-scale current structures in Short Large-Amplitude Magnetic Structures
Shan Wang, Li-Jen Chen, Naoki Bessho +7
We investigate electric current structures in Short Large-Amplitude Magnetic Structures (SLAMS) in the terrestrial ion foreshock region observed by the Magnetospheric Multiscale mi…
MMS SITL Ground Loop: Automating the burst data selection process
Matthew R. Argall, Colin Small, Samantha Piatt +13
Global-scale energy flow throughout Earth's magnetosphere (MSP) is catalyzed by processes that occur at Earth's magnetopause (MP). Magnetic reconnection is one process responsible…
