2018 Workshop Agenda

We are pleased to announce the first GEM Summer Workshop sessions for this focus group.

We will have three sessions, one of which is joint with the Dayside Kinetics focus group.

Tuesday 19 June 2018, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM: Local Physics of Magnetic Reconnection

This session focuses on the local physics of magnetic reconnection. This includes understanding energy conversion on the electron and ion scales, as well as understanding the overall kinetic physics on these scales. The relationship between magnetic reconeciton and turbulence are also covered. Talks are below.

1. 10:30 – 10:40, Blake Alastair Wetherton, “Equations of state applied to MMS data” 2. 10:40 – 10:50, Misha Sitnov, “New kinetic dissipation parameters” 3. 10:50-11:00, Tetsuo Motoba, “Calculation of kinetic dissipation using MMS data” 4. 11:00-11:10, Rick Wilder, “parallel electric fields and dissipation in the outer electron diffusion region.” 5. 11:10-11:20, Prasash Sharma Pyakurel, “Electron-only reconnection” 6. 11:20-11:30, Haoming Liang, “Boltzmann entropy in PIC simulations”

11:30 – 12:00 – Open discussion, walk-on presentations.

Wednesday 20 June 2018, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM: Global Consequences of Magnetic Reconnection

This session focuses on the global drivers and consequences on magnetic reconnection.
