Abstract Variations in the solar wind, particularly those associated with interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) and high‐speed streams (HSSs), drive geomagnetic disturbances that produce rapid changes in the ground magnetic field. These variations, commonly quantified by the time derivative of the horizontal magnetic field dBH/dt $\left({\text ...

Electron and Proton Heating in Transrelativistic Magnetic Reconnection [PDF]
Hot collisionless accretion flows, such as the one in Sgr A* at our Galactic center, provide a unique setting for the investigation of magnetic reconnection. Here protons are nonrelativistic, while electrons can be ultrarelativistic.

Major Space Weather Risks Identified via Coupled Physics‐Engineering‐Economic Modeling
Abstract Space weather poses an important but under‐quantified threat to society. While severe geomagnetic storms are recognized as potential global catastrophes, their socio‐economic impacts remain poorly quantified. We present a novel physics‐engineering‐economic framework that links geophysical drivers to power grid geoelectric fields, transformer ...

Advancements in the study of collisionless magnetic reconnection and plasma waves
Magnetic reconnection and plasma waves share a critical connection. On the one hand, quasi-steady wave structures (shock, KAW eigenmode) play a pivotal role in the formation and structure of magnetic reconnection.

Global Circulation of Martian Ionospheric Currents Revealed by Magnetometer Data
Abstract In the dynamo region of the Martian ionosphere, a large‐scale current is generated by charge separation: ions collide with neutrals while electrons preferentially gyrate around local magnetic field lines. Using MAVEN magnetometer data and a physics‐informed neural network constrained by Ampère's law and Gauss's law for magnetism (the Neural ...

Analytical Modeling of Hot Ion Interchange Injections in Saturn's Magnetosphere
Abstract Cassini's CHarge Energy Mass Spectrometer (CHEMS) instrument collected energetic plasma data from 2004 to 2017, including hundreds of observations of small‐scale nearly dispersionless “local” injection events into the inner magnetosphere. This study assesses whether these interchange‐like injections are a channel‐like structure still connected

Saturn's Auroral Dusk Sector Magnetosphere‐Ionosphere Coupling During Cassini's Proximal Orbits
Abstract The final twenty‐two low‐altitude passes of the Cassini spacecraft enabled the determination of Saturn's field‐aligned currents (FACs) from magnetometer measurements at lower altitudes than previously achieved. We investigate southern dusk‐side FAC behavior with four objectives: how in situ MAG measurements compare to the highly variable ...

Modeling Kinetic Reconnection Onset in Global Magnetospheric Simulations
Abstract We investigate the onset of magnetic reconnection in Earth's magnetotail using a coupled magnetohydrodynamic with embedded particle‐in‐cell (MHD‐EPIC) model, which self‐consistently links global magnetospheric dynamics to electron‐scale kinetic processes. Unlike standalone kinetic simulations with idealized boundary conditions, reconnection in

Abstract This paper introduces an updated version of the University of Michigan Geospace model. The Geospace model has been used for operational forecasting at the Space Weather Modeling Center of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency since 2016 with regular updates. The current operational version, Geospace V2, was launched in 2021 and is driven
