Magnetopause reconnection and interlinked flux tubes [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2013
Magnetic reconnection can be a continuous or a transient process. Global magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations are important tools to understand the relevant magnetic reconnection mechanisms and the resulting magnetic structures.

Asymmetric magnetic reconnection with a flow shear and applications to the magnetopause [PDF]

, 2015
We perform a theoretical and numerical study of anti-parallel 2D magnetic reconnection with asymmetries in the density and reconnecting magnetic field strength in addition to a bulk flow shear across the reconnection site in the plane of the reconnecting
