Direct observations of cross-scale energy transfer in space plasmas

Jing-Huan Li, Xu-Zhi Zhou, Zhi-Yang Liu +8

The collisionless plasmas in space and astrophysical environments are intrinsically multiscale in nature, behaving as conducting fluids at macroscales and kinetically at microscale…

Multi-scale observation of magnetotail reconnection onset: 2. microscopic dynamics

K. J. Genestreti, C. Farrugia, S. Lu +23

We analyze the local dynamics of magnetotail reconnection onset using Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) data. In conjunction with MMS, the macroscopic dynamics of this event were cap…

Multi-scale observation of magnetotail reconnection onset: 1. macroscopic dynamics

K. J. Genestreti, C. Farrugia, S. Lu +22

We analyze a magnetotail reconnection onset event on 3 July 2017 that was observed under otherwise quiescent magnetospheric conditions by a fortuitous conjunction of six space and…

Electrostatic turbulence and Debye-scale structures in collisionless shocks

R. Wang, I. Y. Vasko, F. S. Mozer +8

We present analysis of more than one hundred large-amplitude bipolar electrostatic structures in a quasi-perpendicular supercritical Earth's bow shock crossing, measured by the Mag…

Magnetospheric Multiscale Dayside Reconnection Electron Diffusion Region Events

J. M. Webster, J. L. Burch, P. H. Reiff +21

We have used the high-resolution data of the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission dayside phase to identify twenty-one previously unreported encounters with the electron diffusi…

Localized Oscillatory Dissipation in Magnetopause Reconnection

J. L. Burch, R. E. Ergun, P. A. Cassak +26

Data from the NASA Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission are used to investigate asymmetric magnetic reconnection at the dayside boundary between the Earth's magnetosphere and th…

MMS observation of asymmetric reconnection supported by 3-D electron pressure divergence

Kevin J. Genestreti, Ali Varsani, Jim L. Burch +20

We identify a dayside electron diffusion region (EDR) encountered by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission and estimate the terms in generalized Ohm's law that controlled ene…
