Global Magnetic Reconnection During Sustained Sub‐Alfvénic Solar Wind Driving

Global Magnetic Reconnection During Sustained Sub‐Alfvénic Solar Wind Driving

Abstract When the solar wind speed falls below the local Alfvén speed, the magnetotail transforms into an Alfvén wing configuration. A Grid Agnostic Magnetohydrodynamics for Extended Research Applications (GAMERA) simulation of Earth's magnetosphere using solar wind parameters from the 24 April...
