“…Reconnection jet dynamics is closely related to their interaction with the ambient plasmas. Such interaction leads to formation of particle beams (Aunai et al, ; Eastwood et al, ; Wygant et al, ), rearrangement of the local current system (Lu, Artemyev, et al, ), and various types of kinetic‐scale instabilities developing inside the jets, such as anisotropy instability (Fu et al, ; Huang et al, ; Khotyaintsev et al, ; Liu et al, ), streaming instability (Deng et al, ; Hwang et al, ; Yang et al, ), kinetic ballooning or interchange instability (Nakamura et al, ; Pritchett et al, ; Pritchett & Lu, ), and lower hybrid drift instability at the jet front (JF)/dipolarization front (Divin et al, ; Khotyaintsev et al, ; Liu et al, ; Liu et al, ; Pan et al, ). These instabilities can generate strong electrostatic/electromagnetic waves that may interact with the local plasmas, leading to energy dissipation and particle heating (Khotyaintsev et al, , ; Huang et al, ; Huang et al, ; Fu et al, ; Liu et al, , Liu et al, ; Yao et al, ; Chen, Fu, Zhang, et al, ).…”
