SM13B:
Multiscale Investigations of Fundamental Plasma Processes by in Situ Observations and Simulations I Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 47120

Session Description:
The magnetospheric system is composed of various regions from the foreshock to the ionosphere. The mechanisms that couple these different regions include velocity-shear-driven vortex, waves/turbulence, and magnetic reconnection. These physical processes are often of a multi-scale nature. Many aspects of them occur at kinetic scales (e.g., field-particle interactions and particle acceleration). Their effects, however, have implications at the meso- to global-scales of the system (e.g., plasma transport, magnetospheric storms and substorms). High-resolution in-situ observations made by multi-spacecraft (e.g., MMS, Cluster, THEMIS) and kinetic simulations provide us understanding of the microphysics, while combinations of ground and space measurements, spacecraft conjunctions, and numerical fluid approaches help us understanding the implications at larger scales. This session welcomes studies on current understanding of these multi-scale plasma processes, using observations, simulations, or a combination of them. Studies complemented with multi-point observations from ground or other missions (Van Allen Probes, Arase, Geotail, etc.) are also encouraged.
