Ion distribution functions in magnetotail reconnection: global hybrid-Vlasov simulation results
<p>We present results of noon–midnight meridional plane global hybrid-Vlasov simulations of the magnetotail ion dynamics under a steady southward interplanetary magnetic field using the Vlasiator model. The simulation results show magnetotail reconnection and formation of earthward and tailwar...
