A family of Vlasov-Maxwell equilibrium distribution functions describing a transition from the Harris sheet to the force-free Harris sheet
T. Neukirch, F. Wilson, O. Allanson
We discuss a family of Vlasov-Maxwell equilibrium distribution functions for current sheet equilibria that are intermediate cases between the Harris sheet and the force-free (or mo…
The inverse problem for collisionless plasma equilibria
O. Allanson, S. Troscheit, T. Neukirch
Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria are described by the self-consistent solutions of the time-independent Maxwell equations for the real-space dynamics of electromagnetic fields, and the Vl…
Theory of one-dimensional Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria: with applications to collisionless current sheets and flux tubes
Oliver Allanson
We study the theory of Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria in one spatial dimension, as well as its application to current sheet and flux tube models. The 'inverse problem' is that of determ…
Exact Vlasov-Maxwell equilibria for asymmetric current sheets
O. Allanson, F. Wilson, T. Neukirch +2
The NASA Magnetospheric Multiscale mission has made in situ diffusion region and kinetic-scale resolution measurements of asymmetric magnetic reconnection for the first time, in th…
