The Location of Magnetic Reconnection at Earth's Magnetopause. [PDF]
One of the major questions about magnetic reconnection is how specific solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field conditions influence where reconnection occurs at the Earth’s magnetopause.

Analytical solutions for time-dependent kinematic three-dimensional magnetic reconnection. [PDF]
Magnetic reconnection is a process that can rapidly convert magnetic field energy into plasma thermal energy and kinetic energy, and it is also an important energy conversion mechanism in space physics, astrophysics and plasma physics.

Magnetic reconnection: MHD theory and modelling
In this review we focus on the fundamental theory of magnetohydrodynamic reconnection, together with applications to understanding a wide range of dynamic processes in the solar corona, such as flares, jets, coronal mass ejections, the solar wind and ...

Magnetic reconnection in partially ionized plasmas. [PDF]
Magnetic reconnection has been intensively studied in fully ionized plasmas. However, plasmas are often partially ionized in astrophysical environments.

Perspectives on magnetic reconnection. [PDF]
Magnetic reconnection is a topological rearrangement of magnetic field that occurs on time scales much faster than the global magnetic diffusion time. Since the field lines break on microscopic scales but energy is stored and the field is driven on macroscopic scales, reconnection is an inherently multi-scale process that often involves both ...

Direct evidence of secondary reconnection inside filamentary currents of magnetic flux ropes during magnetic reconnection. [PDF]
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process, by which magnetic energy is explosively released in the current sheet to energize charged particles and to create bi-directional Alfvénic plasma jets.

Shock-induced magnetic reconnection in the Venusian magnetotail [PDF]
Magnetic reconnection, a universal process governing energy release in astrophysical plasmas, has long been studied as a key phenomenon in magnetized planets. However, its drivers and impacts in unmagnetized bodies remain poorly understood.

Measurement of the Magnetic Reconnection Rate in the Earth's Magnetotail
In the Earth's magnetotail, magnetic reconnection releases stored magnetic energy and drives magnetospheric convection. The rate at which magnetic flux is transferred from the reconnection inflow to outflow regions is determined by the reconnection ...
