Evolution of the total magnetic energy (red lines), particle kinetic energy (green lines), and the energy in the electric field multiplied by 20 for clarity (blue lines), all normalized to the total initial energy, in runs S2K025L (solid lines) and S2K025 (dashed lines). The time is expressed in units of the light crossing time of the current sheet τ c0 .
