Microstructure of Magnetic Reconnection in Earth's Magnetotail
A recent study of magnetic reconnectiori in the earth's magnetotail dentified five events in which a pulse of heated electrons appeared near the end of an interval of fast tailward plasma flow. Further investigation of these events has revealed the following information on their microstructure' (1) Measurements of the electron Velocity distribution show that the temperature rise can be characte...
متن کاملThree-species collisionless reconnection: effect of O+ on magnetotail reconnection.
The nature of collisionless reconnection in a three-species plasma composed of a heavy species, protons, and electrons is examined. In addition to the usual two length scales present in two-species reconnection, there are two additional larger length scales in the system: one associated with a "heavy whistler" which produces a large scale quadrupolar out-of-plane magnetic field, and one associa...
متن کاملEnergy partition in magnetic reconnection in Earth's magnetotail.
The partition of energy flux in magnetic reconnection is examined experimentally using Cluster satellite observations of collisionless reconnection in Earth's magnetotail. In this plasma regime, the dominant component of the energy flux is ion enthalpy flux, with smaller contributions from the electron enthalpy and heat flux and the ion kinetic energy flux. However, the Poynting flux is not neg...
متن کاملMagnetic reconnection in the near-Mars magnetotail: MAVEN observations
We report Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) observations of electrons, ions, and magnetic fields which provide comprehensive demonstration of magnetic reconnection signatures in the Martian magnetotail. In the near-Mars tail current sheet at XMSO ∼−1.3RM, trapped electrons with two-sided loss cones were observed, indicating the closed magnetic field topology. In the closed field re...
متن کاملThe magnetotail reconnection region in a global MHD simulation
This work investigates the nature and the role of magnetic reconnection in a global magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the magnetosphere. We use the Gumics-4 simulation to study reconnection that occurs in the near-Earth region of the current sheet in the magnetotail. We locate the current sheet surface and the magnetic x-line that appears when reconnection starts. We illustrate the difference b...
