Azimuthal Variation of Magnetopause Reconnection at Scales Below an Earth Radius
Abstract While magnetopause reconnection naturally occurs in three‐dimensional environments, our understanding of the process has been mainly confined to the two‐dimensional reconnection plane. How reconnection varies in the third direction, that is, the azimuthal direction, and what causes the vari...
