Comparison of Secondary Islands in Collisional Reconnection to Hall Reconnection [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2010
Large-scale resistive Hall-magnetohydrodynamic (Hall-MHD) simulations of the transition from Sweet-Parker (collisional) to Hall (collisionless) magnetic reconnection are presented, the first to separate effects of secondary islands from collisionless effects. Three main results are described.

Aspects of three-dimensional MHD : magnetic reconnection and rotating coronae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Solutions of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations are very important for modelling laboratory, space and astrophysical plasmas, for example the solar and stellar coronae, as well as for modelling many of the dynamic processes that occur in these ...

Dayside flow bursts and high-latitude reconnection when the IMF is strongly northward [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The characteristics of dayside ionospheric convection are studied using Northern Hemispheric SuperDARN data and DMSP particle and flow observations when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) was strongly northward during 13:00–15:00 UT on 2 March 2002.

Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence in the Earth’s Magnetotail From Observations and Global MHD Simulations

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulent flows are found in the solar wind, the magnetosheath and the magnetotail plasma sheet. In this paper, we review both observational and theoretical evidence for turbulent flow in the magnetotail.

Is Our Understanding of Solar-Wind/Magnetosphere Coupling Satisfactory?

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
An assessment of our physics-based understanding of solar-wind/magnetosphere coupling finds that the understanding is not complete. Solar-wind/magnetosphere coupling is foundational to magnetospheric physics and it is a key to comprehending and ...

La dette écologique en questions : propos introductifs

open access: yesVertigO, 2016
This paper enlights the concept of ecological debt through the diversity of its definitions and consequences. What is the “power” of the concept ? What are the objects (material and immaterial debt) and its consequences ?

TR Jets above Magnetic X-Type Null Points [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2023
Various chromosphere and transition region jet-like structures abound playing an essential role in the dynamics and evolution therein. Tentatively identifying the wave characteristics and oscillatory behavior in the outer solar atmosphere helps to ...

Ion‐scale structure in Mercury's magnetopause reconnection diffusion region

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
The strength and time dependence of the electric field in a magnetopause diffusion region relate to the rate of magnetic reconnection between the solar wind and a planetary magnetic field.

Dayside and nightside reconnection rates inferred from IMAGE FUV and Super Dual Auroral Radar Network data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The spectrographic imager at 121.8 nm (SI12) of the far ultraviolet (FUV) experiment onboard the IMAGE spacecraft produces global images of the Doppler-shifted Lyman α emission of the proton aurora. This emission is solely due to proton precipitation and
