Scaling of Particle Heating in Shocks and Magnetic Reconnection
Mitsuo Oka, Tai D. Phan, Marit Øieroset +4
Particles are heated efficiently through energy conversion processes such as shocks and magnetic reconnection in collisionless plasma environments. While empirical scaling laws for…
Outstanding questions and future research of magnetic reconnection
R. Nakamura, J. L. Burch, J. Birn +22
This short article highlights the unsolved problems of magnetic reconnection in collisionless plasma. The advanced in-situ plasma measurements and simulations enabled scientists to…
The Dynamics of a High Mach Number Quasi-Perpendicular Shock: MMS Observations
H. Madanian, M. I. Desai, S. J. Schwartz +12
Shock parameters at Earth's bow shock in rare instances can approach the Mach numbers predicted at supernova remnants. We present our analysis of a high Alfvén Mach number ($M_A= 2…
