Global-scale hybrid simulation of cusp precipitating ions associated with magnetopause reconnection under southward IMF 

Tan, B.; Lin, Y.; Perez, J. D.; Wang, X. Y.; 0000-0001-8003-9252; 0000-0001-5533-5981 (2020-06-09)
With a 3-D global-scale hybrid simulation model, we investigate the energy spectra of cusp precipitating ions and issues associated with magnetopause reconnection under a southward IMF. Both the spatial and temporal energy ...

Global-scale hybrid simulation of dayside magnetic reconnection under southward IMF: Structure and evolution of reconnection 

Tan, B.; Lin, Y.; Perez, J. D.; Wang, X. Y.; 0000-0001-8003-9252; 0000-0001-5533-5981 (2020-06-12)
Magnetopause reconnection is investigated with our 3-D self-consistent global hybrid simulation model. The magnetic configuration and evolution of Flux Transfer Events (FTEs) and the associated ion density and ion velocity ...

Hybrid simulation of foreshock waves and ion spectra and their linkage to cusp energetic ions 

Wang, X. Y.; Lin, Y.; Chang, S. -W.; 0000-0001-5533-5981; 0000-0001-8003-9252 (2020-06-16)
A three-dimensional global hybrid simulation is carried out to investigate energetic ions and electromagnetic waves in the quasi-parallel (Q-parallel to) bow shock and cusp for a typical interplanetary magnetic field ...

Hybrid simulation of mode conversion at the magnetopause 

Lin, Y.; Johnson, J. R.; Wang, X. Y.; 0000-0001-8003-9252; 0000-0001-5533-5981 (2020-06-16)
Two-dimensional hybrid simulations are used to investigate how fast-mode compressional waves incident on a magnetopause current layer mode convert both linearly and nonlinearly to short wavelength (k(perpendicular to)rho(i) ...

Investigation of storm time magnetotail and ion injection using three-dimensional global hybrid simulation 

Lin, Y.; Wang, X. Y.; Lu, S.; Perez, J. D.; Lu, Q.; 0000-0001-8003-9252; 0000-0001-5533-5981 (2020-06-05)
Dynamics of the near-Earth magnetotail associated with substorms during a period of extended southward interplanetary magnetic field is studied using a three-dimensional (3-D) global hybrid simulation model that includes ...

Ion Acceleration Inside Foreshock Transients 

Liu, Terry Z.; Lu, San; Angelopoulos, Vassilis; Lin, Yu; Wang, X. Y.; 0000-0001-8003-9252 (2020-05-28)
Recent observations upstream of Earth's bow shock have revealed that foreshock transients can not only accelerate solar wind ions by reflection at their upstream boundaries but may also accelerate ions inside them. Evidence ...

Three-dimensional hybrid simulation of magnetosheath reconnection under northward and southward interplanetary magnetic field 

Pang, Y.; Lin, Y.; Deng, X. H.; Wang, X. Y.; Tan, B.; 0000-0001-8003-9252; 0000-0001-5533-5981 (2020-06-16)
A three-dimensional (3-D) global hybrid simulation is carried out for the generation and structure of magnetic reconnection in the magnetosheath because of the interaction of an interplanetary tangential discontinuity (TD) ...
