Ion heating and magnetic flux pile-up in a magnetic reconnection experiment with super-Alfvénic plasma inflows
This work presents a magnetic reconnection experiment in which the kinetic, magnetic, and thermal properties of the plasma each play an important role in the overall energy balance and structure of the generated reconnection layer. Magnetic reconnection occurs during the interaction of continuous an...
