Energy Partition of Thermal and Nonthermal Particles in Magnetic Reconnection

Magnetic reconnection has long been known to be the most important mechanism for quick conversion of magnetic field energy into plasma kinetic energy. In addition, energy dissipation by reconnection has gained attention not only as a plasma heating mechanism, but also as a plasma mechanism for accel...
