Abstract: We investigate whistler‐mode waves and broadband electrostatic waves (EWs) within an ion diffusion region (IDR) at the magnetopause. The quasi‐parallel whistlers are observed in the separatrix regions associated with the electron anisotropy or loss cone,… read more here.

Abstract: Magnetic reconnection efficiently converts magnetic energy into kinetic and thermal energy of plasmas. It is recently found that energy conversion mainly occurs at reconnection fronts (characterized by the enhancement of the reconnected magnetic field component… read more here.
