    • Millisecond observations of nonlinear wave–electron interaction in electron phase space holes 

      Norgren, Astrid Elisabet Cecilia; Graham, Daniel B.; Argall, Matthew; Steinvall, Konrad; Hesse, Michael; Khotyaintsev, Yuri V.; Vaivads, Andris; Tenfjord, Paul Arne Riksheim; Gershman, Daniel J; Lindqvist, Per-Arne; Burch, James L; Plaschke, Ferdinand (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Electron phase space holes (EHs) associated with electron trapping are commonly observed as bipolar electric field signatures in both space and laboratory plasma. Until recently, it has not been possible to resolve EHs in ...

    • A new Look at the Electron Diffusion Region in Asymmetric Magnetic Reconnection 

      Hesse, Michael; Norgren, Astrid Elisabet Cecilia; Tenfjord, Paul; James L., Burch; Liu, Yi‐Hsin; Bessho, Naoki; Wang, Shan; Kolstø, Håkon Midthun; Spinnangr, Susanne Flø; Ergun, Robert E; Moretto, Therese; Kwagala, Norah Kaggwa (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      A new look at the structure of the electron diffusion region in collision less magnetic reconnection is presented. The research is based on a particle-in-cell simulation of asymmetric magnetic reconnection, which includes ...

    • Observational Evidence of Magnetic Reconnection in the Terrestrial Bow Shock Transition Region 

      Wang, Shan; Chen, Li-Jen; Bessho, Naoki; Hesse, Michael; Wilson, Lynn B.; Giles, Barbara; Moore, Thomas E.; Russell, Christopher T.; Torbert, Roy B.; Burch, James L. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      We report evidence of magnetic reconnection in the transition region of the Earth's bow shock when the angle between the shock normal and the immediate upstream magnetic field is 65°. An ion‐skin‐depth‐scale current sheet ...

    • On the Impact of a Streaming Oxygen Population on Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection 

      Kolstø, Håkon Midthun; Hesse, Michael; Norgren, Astrid Elisabet Cecilia; Tenfjord, Paul; Spinnangr, Susanne Flø; Kwagala, Norah Kaggwa (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Using 2.5-D Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulations, we investigate how magnetotail reconnection is affected by a cold, streaming, oxygen plasma population, attributed to an ionospheric source, in the inflow region. As the ...

    • On the Presence and Thermalization of Cold Ions in the Exhaust of Antiparallel Symmetric Reconnection 

      Norgren, Astrid Elisabet Cecilia; Tenfjord, Paul Arne Riksheim; Hesse, Michael; Toledo-Redondo, Sergio; Li, Wenya; Xu, Yin; Kwagala, Norah Kaggwa; Spinnangr, Susanne Flø; Kolstø, Håkon Midthun; Moretto, Therese (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Using fully kinetic 2.5 dimensional particle-in-cell simulations of anti-parallel symmetric magnetic reconnection, we investigate how initially cold ions are captured by the reconnection process, and how they evolve and ...

    • The Role of Resistivity on the Efficiency of Magnetic Reconnection in MHD 

      Jimenez, Judit Perez-Coll; Tenfjord, Paul Arne Riksheim; Hesse, Michael; Norgren, Astrid Elisabet Cecilia; Kwagala, Norah Kaggwa; Kolstø, Håkon Midthun; Spinnangr, Susanne Flø (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Using a resistive MagnetoHydroDynamic (MHD) simulation, we study how the magnitude and shape of diffusion influence magnetic reconnection. Specifically, we investigate how and why the reconnection rate is influenced by ...

    • Substorm Current Wedge: Energy Conversion and Current Diversion 

      Birn, J.; Borovsky, Joseph E.; Hesse, Michael; Kepko, L. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Using a magnetohydrodynamic simulation of magnetotail reconnection, flow bursts, and dipolarization, we further investigate the current diversion and energy flow and conversion associated with the substorm current wedge ...

    • Three-Dimensional Magnetic Reconnection With a Spatially Confined X-Line Extent: Implications for Dipolarizing Flux Bundles and the Dawn-Dusk Asymmetry 

      Liu, Yi-Hsin; Li, TC; Hesse, Michael; Sun, WJ; Liu, J; Burch, J; Slavin, James Arthur; Huang, K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Using 3‐D particle‐in‐cell simulations, we study magnetic reconnection with the X‐line being spatially confined in the current direction. We include thick current layers to prevent reconnection at two ends of a thin current ...

    • Validating the Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) for applications in northern Europe: Ground magnetic perturbation validation 

      Kwagala, Norah Kaggwa; Hesse, Michael; Moretto, Therese; Tenfjord, Paul; Norgren, Astrid Elisabet Cecilia; Tóth, Gábor; Gombosi, Tamás I.; Kolstø, Håkon Midthun; Spinnangr, Susanne Flø (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      In this study we investigate the performance of the University of Michigan’s Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) in prediction of ground magnetic perturbations (ΔB) and their rate of change with time (dB/dt), which is ...
