Local infiltration of low-dose epinephrine causes temporary significant hemodynamic changes particularly a marked decrease in BP during FESS under general anesthesia.
Utilizing high-resolution data from the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, we present new observations of lower-hybrid drift waves (LHDWs) in terrestrial magnetotail reconnection with guide field levels of ∼70% and asymmetric plasma density (N
high/N
low ∼ 2.5). The LHDWs, driven by lower-hybrid drift instability, were observed in correlation with magnetic field and density gradients at separatrices on both sides of the reconnection current sheet. The properties of the LHDWs at both sides of the separatrices are different: (1) At high-density side separatrices, the LHDWs with wavelength kρ
e ∼ 0.41 propagated away from the X-line mainly in the L–M plane; (2) at the low-density side separatrices, the LHDWs with wavelengths kρ
e ∼ 0.76 and kρ
e ∼ 0.35 propagated mainly along the outflow direction and current sheet normal. It is also found that the perpendicular magnetic field fluctuations were comparable to the parallel component. Wave potential of the LHDWs was 20% ∼ 35% of the electron temperature. The LHDWs contributed to electron demagnetization and energy dissipation. Our study can promote understanding of properties of LHDWs during magnetic reconnection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
