On the origin of "patchy" energy conversion in electron diffusion regions
Kevin J. Genestreti, Xiaocan Li, Yi-Hsin Liu +9
During magnetic reconnection, field lines interconnect in electron diffusion regions (EDRs). In some EDRs the reconnection and energy conversion rates are controlled by a steady ou…
Electrostatic solitary waves in the Earth's bow shock: nature, properties, lifetimes and origin
R. Wang, I. Y. Vasko, F. S. Mozer +4
We present a statistical analysis of more than two thousand bipolar electrostatic solitary waves (ESW) collected from ten quasi-perpendicular Earth's bow shock crossings by Magneto…
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…
The ELFIN Mission
V. Angelopoulos, E. Tsai, L. Bingley +79
The Electron Loss and Fields Investigation with a Spatio-Temporal Ambiguity-Resolving option (ELFIN-STAR, or simply: ELFIN) mission comprises two identical 3-Unit (3U) CubeSats on…
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…
In situ Measurement of Curvature of Magnetic Field in Turbulent Space Plasmas: A Statistical Study
Riddhi Bandyopadhyay, Yan Yang, William H. Matthaeus +10
Using in situ data, accumulated in the turbulent magnetosheath by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Mission, we report a statistical study of magnetic field curvature and discuss…
