The Micro-Macro Coupling of Mass-Loading in Symmetric Magnetic Reconnection With Cold Ions

We investigate how magnetic reconnection is influenced by an inflow of a dense cold ion population. We compare two 2.5D Particle-In-Cell simulations, one containing the cold population and one without. We find that the cold population influences the reconnection process on both global and kinetic sc...
