Introduces kinetic pressure-strain and kinetic strain-rate tensor diagnostics to isolate velocity-space contributions to pressure-strain interaction from distinct populations in composite distributions, applied to 2D PIC simulations of antiparallel magnetic reconnection.
Hybrid simulations of tearing reconnection show magnetic energy converts to ion bulk flows and heating in the nonlinear phase, with island contraction driving parallel ion temperature anisotropy that firehose instabilities regulate by redistributing energy to the perpendicular direction.
