Electron scale structures and magnetic reconnection signatures in the turbulent magnetosheath

Electron scale structures and magnetic reconnection signatures in the turbulent magnetosheath

Abstract Collisionless space plasma turbulence can generate reconnecting thin current sheets as suggested by recent results of numerical magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission provides the first serious opportunity to verify whether small ion‐electron‐scale reco...
