    Description: The nature of the nonlinear evolution of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in the presence of sheared magnetic fields was investigated via numerical simulation. Models of the magnetosheath-magnetopause boundary in earth's tail and stream interaction regions in the inner heliosphere were studied. The development of the instability is influenced strongly by the orientation and magnitude of the magnetic field. Large vortical structures that resemble observations in the earth's tail can form while other cases generate turbulent spectra that provide insight into the generation of Alfven turbulence in the solar wind.

    Description: The effect of turbulence on particle acceleration in a MHD field was investigated by computing test particle trajectories in turbulent MHD reconnecting fields, including reconnection simulations at different magnetic Reynolds numbers. The dynamics of individual particles were investigated making it possible to examine the acceleration mechanism in great detail. It was found that turbulence influences the acceleration in two ways. It enhances the reconnection electric field while producing a stochastic electric field that gives rise to momentum diffusion; and it produces magnetic 'bubbles' and other irregularities that can temporarily trap test particles in the strong reconnection electric field for times comparable to the magnetofluid characteristic time.
