Article Synopsis
  • Turbulence and magnetic reconnection are important nonlinear plasma phenomena that significantly affect energy transport in space and astrophysical plasmas.
  • Recent high-resolution, multi-spacecraft observations have improved our understanding of their complex interactions, revealing how turbulence generates current sheets that can undergo reconnection.
  • This paper reviews current knowledge on these interactions in collisionless plasmas, particularly in Earth's magnetosphere, highlighting findings from NASA's missions in key areas like the magnetosheath and magnetotail.
