Magnetic reconnection is a topological rearrangement of magnetic field that converts
magnetic energy to plasma energy. Astrophysical flares, from the Earth's magnetosphere to …

The tri-axial search-coil magnetometer (SCM) belongs to the FIELDS instrumentation suite
on the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission (Torbert et al. in Space Sci. Rev.(2014) …

The nature of the magnetic field fluctuations in the solar wind between the ion and electron
scales is still under debate. Using the Cluster/STAFF instrument, we make a survey of the …

Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process whereby microscopic plasma processes
cause macroscopic changes in magnetic field topology, leading to explosive energy release …

Context. The first encounters of Parker Solar Probe (PSP) with the Sun revealed the
presence of ubiquitous localised magnetic deflections in the inner heliosphere; these …

Whistler waves that can produce anomalous resistivity by affecting electrons' motion have
been suggested as one of the mechanisms responsible for magnetic reconnection in the …

Magnetic reconnection—the process typically lasting for a few seconds in space—is able to
accelerate electrons. However, the efficiency of the acceleration during such a short period …

The Martian‐induced magnetopause (IMP), characterized by the sudden changes of
magnetic fields and ion compositions, is the transition boundary separating the …

The seismic activities on the Earth can produce a disturbance of the electromagnetic field
and particles in the ionosphere. The search coil magnetometer (SCM) mounted on China …

Using data from the MMS mission and the First‐Order Taylor Expansion (FOTE) method,
here we reveal electron distribution functions around a reconnection X‐line at the Earth's …
