“…It can be responsible for the transport of momentum and energy (Miura, 1984;Pu & Kivelson, 1983). In addition, the KH instability can trigger secondary instabilities (e.g., reconnection and wave-particle interaction) in the nonlinear stage to break the frozen-in condition, which transports plasma, flux tube entropy, and magnetic flux (Delamere et al, 2011;Delamere et al, 2018;Ma et al, 2014aMa et al, , 2014bMa et al, 2017;Nykyri & Otto, 2004;Ohsawa et al, 1976;Otto & Fairfield, 2000). Furthermore, several nonadiabatic heating mechanisms are expected to be attributed to the KH instability and the associated secondary instability (e.g., Masson & Nykyri, 2018;Moore et al, 2016).…”
