Magnetic reconnection is the underlying process that releases impulsively an enormous
amount of magnetic energy in solar flares,, flares on strongly magnetized neutron stars and …

The Vlasov–Maxwell equations provide an ab initio description of collisionless plasmas, but
solving them is often impractical because of the wide range of spatial and temporal scales …

We introduce an extensible multi-fluid moment model in the context of collisionless magnetic
reconnection. This model evolves full Maxwell equations and simultaneously moments of …

Continuum Vlasov simulations can be utilized for highly accurate modelling of fully kinetic
plasmas. Great progress has been made recently regarding the applicability of the method …

We studied the role of electron physics in 3‐D two‐fluid 10‐moment simulation of
Ganymede's magnetosphere. The model captures nonideal physics like the Hall effect …

We have identified a spatially extended electron current sheet (ECS) and its adjacent
magnetic island during a magnetotail reconnection event with no appreciable guide field …

In this paper, we present a novel kinetic scheme termed the Energy Conserving Semi-
Lagrangian (ECSL) for the Vlasov-Ampère system. The novelty of the ECSL is that it retains …

We investigate magnetic reconnection and particle acceleration in relativistic pair plasmas
with three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations of a kinetic-scale current sheet in a …

Open questions concerning structures and dynamics of diffusion regions and electron
acceleration in collisionless magnetic reconnection are addressed based on data from the …

A detailed procedure of full-electromagnetic Vlasov simulation technique is presented. Our
new unsplitting conservative scheme exactly satisfies the continuity equation for charge. The …
