Extended magnetic reconnection at the Earth's magnetopause from detection of bi-directional jets
Magnetic reconnection is a process that converts magnetic energy into bi-directional plasma jets; it is believed to be the dominant process by which solar-wind energy enters the Earth's magnetosphere 1 , 2 . This energy is subsequently dissipated by magnetic storms and aurorae 3 , 4 . Previous...
