Estimates of terms in Ohm's law during an encounter with an electron diffusion region

Estimates of terms in Ohm's law during an encounter with an electron diffusion region

Abstract We present measurements from the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission taken during a reconnection event on the dayside magnetopause which includes a passage through an electron diffusion region (EDR). The four MMS satellites were separated by about 10 km such that estimates of gradients...
