    • Effects of the guide field on electron distribution functions in the diffusion region of asymmetric reconnection 

      Bessho, Naoki; Chen, Lijen; Wang, Shan; Hesse, Michael (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Crescent electron distribution functions in the electron diffusion region in asymmetric reconnection with a guide field (strength less than 50% of the upstream magnetic field) are investigated by theory and fully kinetic ...

    • 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 ...

    • Spatial evolution of magnetic reconnection diffusion region structures with distance from the X-line 

      Oieroset, M; Phan, Tai D.; Ergun, R.E.; Ahmadi, N.; Genestreti, K.; Drake, J. F.; Liu, Y.; Haggerty, CM; Eastwood, JP; Shay, M.A.; Pyakural, P.; Haaland, Stein Egil; Oka, M; Goodbred, M; Eriksson, S; Burch, J. L.; Torbert, R; Khotyaintsev, Y; Russell, C. T.; Strangeway, R; Gershman, D.J.; Giles, B. L. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      We report Magnetospheric Multiscale four-spacecraft observations of a thin reconnecting current sheet with weakly asymmetric inflow conditions and a guide field of approximately twice the reconnecting magnetic field. The ...
