Energy partition in magnetic reconnection and kinetic turbulence in weakly collisional plasmas
… energy is dissipated into particle heating, kinetic energy, and supra-thermal particle acceleration; an understanding of energy partition in reconnection may be used to explain numerous physical phenomena such as the turbulent heating of the solar wind and the formation of high-energy …

Kinetic Modeling of Ionospheric Outflows Observed by the VISIONS-1 Sounding Rocket
… structure at higher altitudes.</p> <p>A new fully kinetic model is constructed from first principles which traces large numbers of individual O+ ion macro-particles along curved magnetic field lines, using a guiding-center approximation, in order to facilitate calculation of ion distribution …

Multiscale numerical simulations of the magnetized plasma sheath with massively parallel electrostatic particle-in-cell code
… fusion devices are typically performed using gyrokinetic approximations, aimed at resolving the physics of the core plasma, scrape-of-layer, and a portion of the divertor. However, the region of plasma near to the surface, called the plasma sheath, where the plasma ions accelerate from subsonic to …
