Inner plasma structure of the low-latitude reconnection layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We report a clear transition through a reconnection layer at the low-latitude magnetopause which shows a complete traversal across all reconnected field lines during northwestward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) conditions.

Bursty magnetic reconnection at Saturn's magnetopause [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We infer the evolution of magnetopause reconnection from simultaneous in situ magnetopause crossings and auroral observations by Cassini on 19 July 2008.

Magnetopause reconnection across wide local time [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
During April to July 2007 a combination of 10 spacecraft provided simultaneous monitoring of the dayside magnetopause across a wide range of local times.

The reversibility of magnetic reconnection [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of Plasmas, 2021
The reversibility of the transfer of energy from the magnetic field to the surrounding plasma during magnetic reconnection is examined. Trajectories of test particles in an analytic field model demonstrate that irreversibility is associated with separatrix crossings and passages through regions of weaker magnetic field.

Asymmetric distribution of reconnection jet fronts in the Jovian nightside magnetosphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Magnetic reconnection plays important roles in mass transport and energy conversion in planetary magnetospheres. It is considered that transient reconnection causes localized auroral arcs or spots in the Jovian magnetosphere, by analogy to the case in ...

Reconnecting to the Biosphere [PDF]

open access: yesAMBIO, 2011
Humanity has emerged as a major force in the operation of the biosphere, with a significant imprint on the Earth System, challenging social-ecological resilience. This new situation calls for a fundamental shift in perspectives, world views, and institutions.

Magnetic reconnection in the Jovian tail : X-line evolution and consequent plasma sheet structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Magnetic reconnection in planetary magnetospheres plays important roles in energy and mass transfer in the steady state, and also possibly in transient large-scale disturbances.

Quantifying Non‐Maxwellian Properties of Ion Populations During Reconnection at Earth's Magnetopause

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
We investigate ion velocity‐space features within the exhaust of magnetopause reconnection using a global hybrid‐Vlasov simulation. The Hermite transform and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) are applied to quantify the complexity of velocity‐space structures
