Current sheet structure near magnetic X‐line observed by Cluster (2003, methodology): “, 1998] and PIC [Hesse et al., 2001; Pritchett, 2001] simulations that a magnetic reconnection produces a quadrupolar out-of-plane component of the magnetic field.”
Multi-point observations of the Hall electromagnetic field and secondary island formation during magnetic reconnection (2006, background): “significant (20–40%) fraction of the lobe magnetic field strength B0 [Hesse et al., 2001].”
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 ”
