Abstract: |
Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation for space plasma physics that is used in the article 'MMS Observations of an Expanding Oxygen Wave in Magnetic Reconnection'. Magnetic reconnection is one of the most important energy release and transport processes in plasmas. In the case of the Earth's magnetosphere, magnetic reconnection is the primary mechanism responsible for the transport of energy, mass, momentum, and magnetic flux into Earth's magnetic cavity. On the night side, magnetic flux is transported from two inflow regions (north and south) to meet in what is known as the current layer. The simulation used in this study was designed to represent a general reconnection process with a high abundance of oxygen ions made to capture the additional effects introduced by heavier plasma species. This data set contains files of binary data describing the output of the particle-in-cell simulation of magnetotail reconnection in case of oxygen ions of ionospheric origin. |
