A Mechanism of Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection

, 1994
"Forced reconnection in a collisionless magnetized plasma is studied using an implicit particle simulation. A coalescence of magnetic islands induces the electric field E_t at the x-point via the displacement current.

Collisionless Driven Magnetic Reconnection

, 1993
Driven magnetic reconnection in a collisionless plasma is investigated by means of a two-and-one-half dimensional particle simulation. The dynamical compression by plasma inflow forms a peaked profile of current density in the neutral sheet.

Electron inertia and magnetic reconnection

Physics of Plasmas
When electron inertia is the only non-ideal effect in the evolution of a magnetic field B→, the field lines of B→ reconnect, but the lines of a related field B→ do not. B→≡B→+∇→×((c/ωpe)2μ0j→) with ωpe the plasma frequency and j→ the current density. Although a full four-dimensional relativistic calculation of B→ has been made, studies of B→ have been ...
