Gap Formation Around 0.5 Omega(e) in the Whistler-Mode Waves Due To the Plateau-Like Shape in the Parallel Electron Distribution: 2D PIC Simulations

Chen, Huayue; Gao, Xinliang; Lu, Quanming; Fan, Kai; Ke, Yangguang; Wang, Xueyi; Wang, Shui; 0000-0002-7619-701X (2022-10-12)

The power gap around 0.5 Omega(e) (where Omega(e) is the equatorial electron gyrofrequency) of whistler-mode waves is commonly observed in the Earth's inner magnetosphere, but its generation mechanism is still under debate. ...

Magnetic Reconnection Inside Solar Wind Rotational Discontinuity During Its Interaction With the Quasi-Perpendicular Bow Shock and Magnetosheath

Guo, Zhifang; Lin, Yu; Wang, Xueyi; Du, Aimin; 0000-0002-3728-6319 (2022-10-12)

Using a three-dimensional global hybrid simulation, we investigate the formation and evolution of ion-scale magnetic reconnection inside an interplanetary rotational discontinuity (RD) owing to its interaction with the ...
