Dunlop, Malcolm; Khotyaintsev, Yuri; Phan, Tai +25 more

A major subset of solar-terrestrial relations, responsible in particular for the driver of space weather phenomena, is the interaction between the Earth's magnetosphere and the solar wind. As one of the most important modes of the solar-wind-magnetosphere interaction, magnetic reconnection regulates the energy transport and energy release in the s…
