Local acceleration of protons to 100 keV in a quasi-parallel bow shock
Krzysztof Stasiewicz, Bengt Eliasson, Ian J. Cohen +2
Recent observations in the quasi-parallel bow shock by the MMS spacecraft show rapid heating and acceleration of ions up to an energy of about 100 keV. It is demonstrated that a pr…
Direct Multipoint Observations Capturing the Reformation of a Supercritical Fast Magnetosonic Shock
D. L. Turner, L. B. Wilson, K. A. Goodrich +12
Using multipoint Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) observations in an unusual string-of-pearls configuration, we examine in detail observations of the reformation of a fast magnetoso…
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…
Electron-Scale Dynamics of the Diffusion Region during Symmetric Magnetic Reconnection in Space
R. B. Torbert, J. L. Burch, T. D. Phan +46
Magnetic reconnection is an energy conversion process important in many astrophysical contexts including the Earth's magnetosphere, where the process can be investigated in-situ. H…
Charge proportional and weakly mass-dependent acceleration of different ion species in the Earth's magnetotail
F. Catapano, G. Zimbardo, S. Perri +4
Energetic particles with energies from tens of keV to a few hundreds keV are frequently observed in the Earth's magnetotail. Here we study, by means of a test particle numerical si…
