The Influence of Oxygen Ions on the Formation of a Thin Current Sheet in the Magnetotail
Cosmic Research, USA. 2023. Vol. 61. No. 3. P. 218–231.
A thin current sheet in the Earth’s magnetotail with characteristic thickness of one to several proton gyroradii is often observed during magnetospheric disturbances named substorms, when a relatively thick current configuration in the magnetotail is narrowed to an extremely small thickness and then can spontaneously be destroyed. The current-sheet destruction is usually accompanied by such active processes as plasma acceleration and heating, as well as generation of an induced electric field and magnetohydrodynamic waves. In this paper, we developed and investigated a model of formation of a thin current sheet in which, along with protons, we have taken into account single-charged oxygen ions coming from the ionosphere into the magnetotail current sheet during magnetically active periods. The aim of this simulation is to study the peculiarities of thin current-sheet formation in two-component plasma and investigate its structure. It is shown that equilibrium configuration can have some characteristic properties. In particular, if the system consists only of protons or heavy ions, single-scale current equilibrium supported by quasi-adiabatic particles is formed. When a current sheet is formed in plasma that consists of a mixture of protons and oxygen ions in comparable concentrations, a current sheet can be formed with heavy ions as current carriers and chaotic proton trajectories that make a negative contribution to the current, due to which the current-density profile becomes bifurcated with the minimum at the center and maxima at the periphery of the sheet. The results may be useful for the interpretation of observational data in the Earth’s magnetotail.

Resonators based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) using two-dimensional (2D) materials with high-quality factors and excellent electrical control are critical for tunable coherent phonon dynamics, resonant sensors and wireless communications. However, their performance is fundamentally limited by the lack of a unified framework governing energy dissipation mechanisms and their electrical tunability. Here, we synergistically modulate both ...

Thermoelectric materials, long explored for energy harvesting and thermal sensing, convert heat directly into electrical signals. Extending their application to the terahertz (THz) frequency range opens opportunities for low-noise, bias-free THz detection, yet conventional thermoelectrics lack the sensitivity required for practical devices. Thermoelectric coefficients can be strongly enhanced near van Hove singularities (VHS), though these ...

This paper investigates one possible solution to the problem of self-interference cancellation (SIC) arising in the design of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) communication systems. Self-interference cancellation is performed in the digital domain using multilayer nonlinear models adapted via gradient-based optimization. The presence of local minima and saddle points during the adaptation of multilayer models limits the ...

This paper examines echo state networks (ESNs), one of the most prevalent approaches to
implementing reservoir computing. An ESN consists of a recurrent neural network with fixed (untrained)
weights and a readout layer that is typically linear and trainable. This approach enables the creation of energyefficient and computationally efficient neural networks capable of real-time learning. However, since ...

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

The solar wind ion transport across the magnetopause is one of the main sources of plasma for the Earth's magnetotail. Such a transport is supported by various dynamic processes at the flank magnetopause, where wave-particle interactions play a crucial role in ion flow thermalization and diffusion across magnetic field surfaces of the magnetopause tangential discontinuity. ...

Резонансное взаимодействие волн и частиц -- одно из важнейших явлений, определяющих спектры волн и динамику энергичных частиц космической плазмы. Это взаимодействие наиболее полно исследовано для случая, когда плазму можно с хорошей точностью разделить на две компоненты: холодную компоненту, определяющую дисперсионные свойства волн и не участвующую в резонансном взаимодействии, и энергичную компоненту, плотность которой мала по сравнению с плотностью холодной ...
