Two interacting X lines in magnetotail: Evolution of collision between the counterstreaming jets

Abstract We study the process of collision between the counterstreaming jets flowing out from two reconnection sites in the Earth's magnetotail. The X lines, bracketing the region of jets collision, were passing by two Cluster probes successively in tailward direction. Two probes observed two d...
