Cascade Magnetic Reconnection As a Mechanism Transforming Magnetic Energy In Multi-Scale Dynamic Processes In Hot Collisionless Plasma

12/26/2024 - 12:00

Research

One of the urgent problems in space plasma studies is the way magnetic energy, stored in the Earth's magnetotail as a result of interactions with the solar wind, turns into kinetic energy, i.e. energy of hot plasma motion. IKI scientists get closer to the answer using data of MMS mission.
