Disruption of Alfvenic turbulence by magnetic reconnection in a collisionless plasma

We calculate the disruption scale λD at which sheet-like structures in dynamically aligned Alfvénic turbulence are destroyed by the onset of magnetic reconnection in a low-β collisionless plasma. The scaling of λD depends on the order of the statistics being considered, with more intense structures...
