Energetic electron acceleration in the downstream reconnection outflow region (2007, background): “2 for a steady state reconnection model [Shay et al., 2001].”
Multi-point observations of the Hall electromagnetic field and secondary island formation during magnetic reconnection (2006, background): “Recent work, for example, the GEM reconnection challenge [Birn et al., 2001], predicts that the quadrupole Hall magnetic field is a distinctive feature of the diffusion region [e.g., Hesse et al., 2001; Pritchett, 2001b; Shay et al., 2001 ].”
Multi‐scale structure of the electron diffusion region (2007, background): “[7] The full length of the electron jets are seen to extend to De 20di in the exhaust direction rather than the expected 10de [e.g., Shay et al., 2001].”
Particle Acceleration in the Magnetotail and Aurora (2012, background): “The core populations of ions and electrons can be accelerated to the order of the standard Alfvén velocity (B/ √ 4πnpsmi) and the electron Alfvén velocity (B/ √ 4πnpsme), respectively (e.g., Shay et al. 2001).”
Properties of small‐scale Alfvén waves and accelerated electrons from FAST (2003, background): “These simulations have emphasized the importance of nonideal MHD terms in the generalized Ohm’s law including the Hall term and those associated with electron inertia and electron pressure [Shay et al., 2001].”
Formation of secondary islands during magnetic reconnection (2006, background): “In the case of anti-parallel reconnection the structure of the late-time current layer near the xline has been extensively explored [Pritchett, 2001; Hesse et al., 2001; Shay et al., 2001; Zeiler et al., 2002].”
Dipolarization fronts as a signature of transient reconnection in the magnetotail (2009, background): “[12] Recent particle simulations with open boundaries [Daughton et al., 2006] revealed a number of new effects, such as the elongation of the electron dissipation region and the formation ofthe secondary magnetic islands thatwerenot detected before for the case of antiparallel undriven reconnection ”
General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the jet formation and large-scale propagation from black hole accretion systems (2006, background): “…have been invoked to allow reconnection-driven magnetic energy to be converted into thermal energy to accelerate the flow (Drenkhahn 2002; Drenkhahn & Spruit 2002), although the reconnection rate assumed in those papers is not supported by the GEM project on reconnection (Shay et al. 2001).”
