Direct Observations of Reconnection Fronts in Earth's Turbulent Magnetosheath
Reconnection fronts (RFs), ion-scale magnetic transients characterized by dramatic enhancement of reconnected magnetic fields, have been documented as crucial energy transfer regions during magnetic reconnection. RFs have hitherto been observed only in the planetary (e.g., Earth, Saturn, Mars, and V...
