MMS observations of ion‐scale magnetic island in the magnetosheath turbulent plasma

Abstract In this letter, first observations of ion‐scale magnetic island from the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission in the magnetosheath turbulent plasma are presented. The magnetic island is characterized by bipolar variation of magnetic fields with magnetic field compression, strong core field, de...
