Direct Observations of Reconnection Fronts in Earth's Turbulent Magnetosheath
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Reconnection fronts (RFs), ion-scale magnetic transients characterized by dramatic enhancement of reconnected magnetic fields, have been documented as crucial energy transfer regions during magnetic reconnection.

Electrostatic Solitary Structures in Space Plasmas: Soliton Perspective
Plasma, 2021 Occurrence of electrostatic solitary waves (ESWs) is ubiquitous in space plasmas, e.g., solar wind, Lunar wake and the planetary magnetospheres. Several theoretical models have been proposed to interpret the observed characteristics of the ESWs.

Evidence of Large-Scale Quantization in Space Plasmas
Entropy, 2013 In plasmas, Debye screening structures the possible correlations between particles. We identify a phase space minimum h* in non-equilibrium space plasmas that connects the energy of particles in a Debye sphere to an equivalent wave frequency.

Quasi-parallel whistler mode waves observed by THEMIS during near-earth dipolarizations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2009 We report on quasi-parallel whistler emissions detected by the near-earth satellites of the THEMIS mission before, during, and after local dipolarization. These emissions are associated with an electron temperature anisotropy α=T⊥e/T||e>1

Suprathermal electron acceleration during reconnection onset in the magnetotail [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2011 We study one event of reconnection onset associated to a small substorm on 27 September 2006 by using Cluster observations at inter-spacecraft separation of about 10 000 km.

Evidence of entropy cascade in collisionless magnetized plasma turbulence
Communications Physics, 2022 Turbulence of collisionless magnetized plasmas is ubiquitous in space as well as laboratory plasmas, and as such is subject to intense study. The authors present experimental evidence of the existence of entropy cascade by direct visualization of entropy

The chromo-Weibel instability [PDF]
, 2006 I discuss the physics of non-Abelian plasmas which are locally anisotropic in momentum space. Such momentum-space anisotropies are generated by the rapid longitudinal expansion of the matter created in the first 1 fm/c of an ultrarelativistic heavy ion ...

Thermalization and plasma instabilities [PDF]
, 2006 I review recent analytical and numerical advances in the study of non-equilibrium quark-gluon plasma physics. I concentrate on studies of the dynamics of plasmas which are locally anisotropic in momentum space.
