AME: A Cross-Scale Constellation of CubeSats to Explore Magnetic Reconnection in the Solar–Terrestrial Relation [PDF]
Frontiers in Physics, 2020 A major subset of solar–terrestrial relations, responsible, in particular, for the driver of space weather phenomena, is the interaction between the Earth's magnetosphere and the solar wind.

Solar Coronal Heating Fueled by Random Bursts of Fine-scale Magnetic Reconnection in Turbulent Plasma Regions [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Coronal heating is a longstanding issue in solar physics as well as plasma physics in general. In recent years, significant resolution improvements of satellite observations have contributed to a deeper understanding of small-scale physics, e.g ...

Recent Progress in Understanding Solar Magnetic Reconnection [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2015 Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process occurring in a wide range of astrophysical, heliospheric and laboratory plasmas. This process alters magnetic topology and triggers rapid conversion of magnetic energy into thermal heating and nonthermal ...

Ellerman bombs-evidence for magnetic reconnection in the lower solar atmosphere [PDF]
, 2013 The presence of photospheric magnetic reconnection has long been thought to give rise to short and impulsive events, such as Ellerman bombs (EBs) and Type II spicules.

Large solar-type magnetic reconnection model for magnetar giant flare [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2008 Abstract We present a theoretical model describing magnetar giant flares on the basis of solar flare/coronal mass ejection theory. In our model, preflare activity plays a crucial role in driving evaporating flows and supplying baryonic matter to the magnetosphere.

Solar photospheric magnetic reconnection [PDF]
Earth, Planets and Space, 2014 We investigate photospheric magnetic reconnection due to an encounter of oppositely directed vertical magnetic flux sheets, performing 2.5-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) numerical simulations. We construct the initial flux sheets adopting the thin flux tube approximation.
