abstract = "We analize the multifractal scaling of the modulus of the magnetic
field |B| during a rope-rope magnetic reconnection event measured
by ACE and Cluster on 1 February 2002. This event is characterized
by three interplanetary magnetic flux ropes (IMFR), a bifurcated
current sheet, and evidence of rope-rope magnetic reconnection.
The time series of |B| is divided into five intervals
corresponding to interior regions and boundary layers of the three
IMFRs. We quantify the degree of intermittency by computing the
scaling exponents of the structure functions at each interval. In
addition, we investigate the parabolic relation between the
normalized third-order (skewness) and fourth-order (kurtosis)
statistical moments. The parabolic relation is enhanced during
magnetic reconnection demonstrating that rope-rope magnetic
reconnection is the origin of non-Gaussian coherent structures in
the solar wind.",
