Plasmoid-Induced-Reconnection and Fractal Reconnection [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2000
As a key to undertanding the basic mechanism for fast reconnection in solar flares, plasmoid-induced-reconnection and fractal reconnection are proposed and examined.

Indicators of Reconnection Processes and Transition to Global Chaos in Nontwist Maps [PDF]

open access: green, 1998
Reconnection processes of twin-chains are systematically studied in the quadratic twist map. By using the reversibility and symmetry of the mapping, the location of the indicator points is theoretically determined in the phase space. The indicator points

Magnetosphere-Ionosphere Coupling: Implications of Non-Equilibrium Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
The response times of the coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere system are, on average, greater than the autocorrelation timescales of solar wind forcing. This means that the system is rarely, if ever, in equilibrium.

A Review of Studies of Geomagnetic Storms and Auroral/Magnetospheric Substorms Based on the Electric Current Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
The progress of space physics is reviewed from my personal point of view, particularly how I have reached my present understanding of auroral substorms and geomagnetic storms from the time of the earliest days of space physics.

Effects from dayside magnetosphere to distant tail unleashed by a bifurcated, non-reconnecting interplanetary current sheet

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
Global magnetospheric effects resulting from the passage at Earth of large-scale structures have been well studied. The effects of common and short-term features, such as discontinuities and current sheets (CSs), have not been studied in the same depth ...

Further investigation of the effect of upstream solar-wind fluctuations on solar-wind/magnetosphere coupling: Is the effect real?

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
There is a general consensus that fluctuations in the solar wind magnetic field and/or the Alfvenicity of the solar wind drive a solar wind-magnetosphere interaction.

Reconnection in a pinch

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
A recently published analysis of current sheets has updated the classic Harris 1D static solution by considering multiple classes of charged particle trajectories in a generalized and dynamic current sheet. It uses a 1D PIC simulation to describe dynamic

Modeling the Effect of Enhanced Lateral Connectivity on Nutrient Retention Capacity in Large River Floodplains: How Much Connected Floodplain Do We Need?

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
Floodplains have been degraded in Central Europe for centuries, resulting in less dynamic and less diverse ecosystems than in the past. They provide essential ecosystem services like nutrient retention to improve overall water quality and thus fulfill ...
