Magnetic reconnection, the merging of oppositely directed magnetic fields that leads to field
reconfiguration, plasma heating, jetting and acceleration, is one of the most celebrated …

This review aims at providing an up-to-date status and a general introduction to the subject
of the numerical study of energetic particle acceleration and transport in turbulent …

The structure of Mercury's dayside magnetosphere is investigated during three extreme
solar wind dynamic pressure events. Two were the result of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) …

Using observations of Earth's bow shock by the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, we
show for the first time that active magnetic reconnection is occurring at current sheets …

The magnetosphere is the lens through which solar space weather phenomena are focused
and directed towards the Earth. In particular, the non-linear interaction of the solar wind with …

We use three-dimensional (3-D) fully kinetic particle-in-cell simulations to study the
occurrence of magnetic reconnection in a simulation of decaying turbulence created by …

Magnetic reconnection, the annihilation and rearrangement of magnetic fields in a plasma,
is a universal phenomenon that frequently occurs when plasmas carrying oppositely …

Unlike most cosmic plasma structures, planetary magnetospheres can be extensively
studied in situ. In particular, studies of the Earth's magnetosphere over the past few decades …

Magnetospheric Multiscale observations are used to probe the structure and temperature
profile of a guide field reconnection exhaust~ 100 ion inertial lengths downstream from the X …

Magnetic reconnection is of fundamental importance to plasmas because of its role in
releasing and repartitioning stored magnetic energy. Previous results suggest that this …
