Résumé

Reconnection jet fronts, the boundaries separating jetting from ambient plasma, and jet braking regions, where jets eventually stop/dissipate, play a key role for the near-Earth magnetotail e.g. in terms of particle energization. Recent Cluster orbits, where two spacecraft are separated by ~ 100 km (sub-proton scales) while being separated from the others by ~ 10000 km (MHD scales), allow the unique possibility to study jet fronts/braking regions and associated particle energization at different scales. Here we present Cluster observations from such orbits, focusing in particular on the datasets from the upcoming Cluster Guest Investigator campaign.
