We review the range of applications and use of the curlometer, initially developed to analyze
Cluster multi‐spacecraft magnetic field data; but more recently adapted to other arrays of …

Magnetic reconnection underlies the physical mechanism of explosive phenomena in the
solar atmosphere and planetary magnetospheres, where plasma is usually collisionless. In …

In particular during the descending phase of the solar cycle, Alfvén waves in the high-speed
solar wind streams are a major form of interplanetary disturbances. The fluctuating …

Magnetic reconnection is known to be an important process for coupling solar wind mass
and momentum into the Earth's magnetosphere. Reconnection is initiated in an electron …

We use high‐resolution data from dayside passes of the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS)
mission to create for the first time a comprehensive listing of encounters with the electron …

We report observations of multiple subscale reconnecting current sheets embedded inside a
large-scale heliospheric current sheet (HCS) reconnection exhaust. The discovery was …

In the analysis of in-situ space plasma and field data, an establishment of the coordinate
system and the frame of reference, helps us greatly simplify a given problem and provides …

Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process by which magnetic field lines on
two sides of the current sheet flow inward to yield an X-line topology. It is responsible for …

Kinetic‐scale magnetic dips (KSMDs), with a significant depression in magnetic field
strength, and scale length close to and less than one proton gyroradius, were reported in the …

We describe methods for polynomial reconstruction of the magnetic field close to a cluster of
spacecraft and apply that to reconstruction of the magnetic field observed during a magnetic …
