Direct observations of anomalous resistivity and diffusion in collisionless plasma

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: D. B. Graham from the Swedish InstituteState University, Saint Petersburg, Russia have published the paper: Direct observations of anomalous resistivity and diffusion in collisionless plasma, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 02/Dec/2015
• what: The authors show that anomalous resistivity (drag) is balanced by viscosity (momentum transport), and thus the waves do not contribute to the reconnection electric field. The authors determine the coordinate system using a minimum variance analysis of B across the magnetopause.
• future: The results suggest that Du22a5 may be the largest close to the | https . . .
