Simultaneous macroscale and microscale wave–ion interaction in near-earth space plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Cross-scale energy transfers in collisionless plasmas help understanding involved mechanisms. Here, the authors show simultaneous macro- and micro-scale wave-ion interactions provide an efficient mechanism for cross-scale energy transfer and plasma ...

Nongyrotropic particle distributions in space plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1999
In nonstationary, strong inhomogeneous or open plasmas particle orbits are rather complicated. If the nonstationary time scale is smaller than the gyration period, if the inhomogeneity scale is smaller than the gyration radius, i.e. at magnetic plasma

dHybrid: A massively parallel code for hybrid simulations of space plasmas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A massively parallel simulation code, called dHybrid, has been developed to perform global scale studies of space plasma interactions. This code is based on an explicit hybrid model; the numerical stability and parallel scalability of the code are ...

Clustering of ions at atomic dimensions in quantum plasmas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
By means of particle simulations of the equations of motion for ions interacting among themselves under the influence of newly discovered Shukla–Eliasson attractive force (SEAF) in a dense quantum plasma, we demonstrate that the SEAF can bring ions ...

On the Existence of Subsonic Solitary Waves Associated with Reconnection Jets in Earth’s Magnetotail

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Magnetospheric Multiscale Spacecraft (MMS) has detected the signature of electrostatic solitary waves (ESWs) occurring in the reconnection jet site of the Earth’s magnetotail (Liu et al.). These observations have motivated us to explore the mechanism

Direct Observations of Reconnection Fronts in Earth's Turbulent Magnetosheath

open access: yesThe 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.

Successive Energy Conversion at a Stepwise Dipolarization Front

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Dipolarization fronts (DFs), ion-scale magnetic structures characterized by sharp enhancement of northward magnetic field developed within plasma jets, have been suggested to play a crucial role in the energy transfer chain in the terrestrial magnetotail.

Evidence of Large-Scale Quantization in Space Plasmas

open access: yesEntropy, 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.
