Global MHD simulations of Saturns's magnetosphere at the time of Cassini approach [PDF]
, 2005 We present the results of a 3D global magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the magnetosphere of Saturn for the period of Cassini's initial approach and entry into the magnetosphere. We compare calculated bow shock and magnetopause locations with the Cassini

Fast magnetic reconnection via jets and current microsheets [PDF]
, 2003 Numerical simulations of highly nonlinear magnetic reconnection provide evidence of ultrathin current microsheets. These small-scale sheets are formed by strong exhaust jets from a primary large-scale current layer.

The influence of Hall currents, plasma viscosity and electron inertia on magnetic reconnection solutions [PDF]
, 2007 This thesis examines magnetic reconnection in the solar corona. Magnetic reconnection is the only mechanism which allows the magnetic topology of magnetized plasmas to be changed. Many of the dynamic processes in the Sun's atmosphere are believed to be

Three dimensional magnetohydrodynamics of fusion plasmas [PDF]
, 2013 The primary aim of the research on nuclear fusion is to obtain a new energy source to help satisfying a growing and sustainable consumption. This objective has to be reached through scientific research, both from the physics point of view and through the

Compression of the Earth's magnetotail by interplanetary shocks directly drives transient magnetic flux closure [PDF]
, 2006 peer reviewedWe use a novel method to evaluate the global opening and closure of magnetic flux in the terrestrial system, and to analyse two interplanetary shock passages that occurred during magnetically quiet periods.

Magnetic reconnection in flux-tubes undergoing spinning footpoint motions [PDF]
, 2007 Aims.Photospheric motions acting on the coronal magnetic field have the potential to build up huge amounts of magnetic energy. The energy may be released through magnetic reconnection, and so a detailed understanding of the 3D process is crucial if its ...
