X-point test particle acceleration. More...

Detailed Description

Test-particle acceleration near an X-type magnetic reconnection region (see sect. 4.6 of Mignone et al. 2018).

Configurations #1, #2 correspond, respectively, to the cases without and with guide field. They follow the normalization indicated in the paper (vA = 1 = C/100, t = 1/Omega_L).

Configurations #3, #4 replicate #1 and #2 with the resistive RMHD module and are re-normalized so that C = 1, t = 1/Omega_L.
