Fig. 1. Top: out-of-plane current jy. Middle: bulk velocity ux. Bottom:velocity distribution with field-aligned beams (left) and local Alfv´en ve-locity (arrow), bulk- and Alfv´en velocity profiles at x = 190λ0 (right).All graphs represent snapshots at t = 500�−1i; the reconnection point isat x = 100λ0.
Fig. 3. Top: a snapshot of the Hall magnetic field By at time t = 500�−1i.Center: a close-up of the post-plasmoid plasma sheet showing its insta-bility and turbulence
Fig. 4. Black curves: simulated magnetic time series (240�−1i≤ t ≤ 500�−1i) at different positions in the xz-plane
Fig. 5. Top: In-plane velocity field at t = 360�−1iand positions (star) of simulated magnetic time series X,A,B,C (bottom).
