Spontaneously generated flux ropes in 3-D magnetic reconnection
Shi-Chen Bai, Ruilong Guo, Yuchen Xiao +14
Magnetic reconnection is the key to explosive phenomena in the universe. The flux rope is crucial in three-dimensional magnetic reconnection theory and are commonly considered to b…
Relativistic Electron Acceleration and the 'Ankle' Spectral Feature in Earth's Magnetotail Reconnection
Weijie Sun, Mitsuo Oka, Marit Øieroset +14
Electrons are accelerated to high, non-thermal energies during explosive energy-release events in space, such as magnetic reconnection. However, the properties and acceleration mec…
Observation of Chaotic fluctuations in Turbulent Plasma
Riddi Bandyopadhyay, Nicolas V. Sarlis, James M. Weygand +3
Turbulence is a prevalent phenomenon in space and astrophysical plasmas, often characterized by stochastic fluctuations. While laboratory experiments and numerical simulations have…
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…
Identification of coupled Landau and anomalous resonances in space plasmas
Jing-Huan Li, Xu-Zhi Zhou, Zhi-Yang Liu +10
Wave-particle resonance, a ubiquitous process in the plasma universe, occurs when resonant particles observe a constant wave phase to enable sustained energy transfer. Here, we pre…
