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…
Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena in Solar and Heliospheric Plasmas
H. Ji, J. Karpen, A. Alt +105
Magnetic reconnection underlies many explosive phenomena in the heliosphere and in laboratory plasmas. The new research capabilities in theory/simulations, observations, and labora…
A new Look at the Electron Diffusion Region in Asymmetric Magnetic Reconnection
Michael Hesse, Cecilia Norgren, Paul Tenfjord +10
A new look at the structure of the electron diffusion region in collisionless magnetic reconnection is presented. The research is based on a particle-in-cell simulation of asymmetr…
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…
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…
