Jets of Energetic Particles Generated by Magnetic Reconnection at a Three-dimensional Magnetic Null

We investigate particle acceleration during magnetic reconnection at a three-dimensional magnetic null point, in the spine reconnection regime, using a test particle numerical code. We observe efficient particle acceleration and find that two energetic populations are produced: a trapped population...
