Nonideal Fields Solve the Injection Problem in Relativistic Reconnection
Magnetic reconnection in relativistic plasmas is well established as a fast and efficient particle accelerator, capable of explaining the most dramatic astrophysical flares. With particle-in-cell simulations, we demonstrate the importance of nonideal fields for the early stages ("injection"...
