Topological structure of the magnetic solar corona

open access: yes, 2007
The solar corona is a highly complex and active plasma environment, containing many exotic phenomena such as solar flares, coronal mass ejections, prominences, coronal loops, and bright points.

Proton Acceleration in Low-β Magnetic Reconnection with Energetic Particle Feedback

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Magnetic reconnection regions in space and astrophysics are known as active particle acceleration sites. There is ample evidence showing that energetic particles can take a substantial amount of converted energy during magnetic reconnection.

Space- and ground-based investigations of solar wind-magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper provides a brief review of the understanding of the coupled solar wind–magnetosphere–ionosphere system that can be attained from observations of the size of the ionospheric polar caps from space and the ground.

Energy Dissipation in Electron-only Reconnection

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process in space and astrophysical plasmas that converts magnetic energy to particle energy. Recently, a novel kind of reconnection, called electron-only reconnection, has been observed in Earth's magnetosheath ...

Magnetic reconnection and energy extraction from a Konoplya–Zhidenko rotating non-Kerr black hole

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
Recently, magnetic reconnection has attracted considerable attention as a novel energy extraction mechanism, relying on the rapid reconnection of magnetic field lines within the ergosphere. We have investigated the properties of the energy extraction via

Equilibrium and dynamics of collisionless current sheets

open access: yes, 2009
In this thesis examples of translationally invariant one-dimensional (1D) Vlasov-Maxwell (VM) equilibria are investigated. The 1D VM equilibrium equations are equivalent to the motion of a pseudoparticle in a conservative pseudopotential, with the ...

The Origin of Collisionless Dissipation in Magnetic Reconnection

open access: yes, 1993
"The mechanism of collisionless reconnection in magnetized plasmas is studied in terms of coalescence of two flux tubes using implicit particle simulation.
