Magnetic Reconnection as the Driver of the Solar Wind

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present EUV solar observations showing evidence for omnipresent jetting activity driven by small-scale magnetic reconnection at the base of the solar corona.

AME: A Cross-Scale Constellation of CubeSats to Explore Magnetic Reconnection in the Solar–Terrestrial Relation

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.

Magnetic Reconnection Rate in the M6.5 Solar Flare on 2015 June 22

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Magnetic reconnection is regarded as the mechanism for the rapid release of magnetic energy stored in active regions during solar flares, and quantitative measurements of the magnetic reconnection rate are essential for understanding solar flares. In the

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 ...

The role of magnetic reconnection in solar activity [PDF]

, 1999
We argue that magnetic reconnection plays the determining role in many of the various manifestations of solar activity. In particular, it is the trigger mechanism for the most energetic of solar events, coronal mass ejections and eruptive flares. We propose that in order to obtain explosive eruptions, magnetic reconnection in the corona must have an ...

Observation of the Hall Magnetic Reconnection As Close As 56 Solar Radii from the Sun

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
A few thin current layers were detected in the rear boundary of an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) observed at 56 solar radii from the Sun as the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft approached the perihelion for the first time, and were caused by ...

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.

Magnetic reconnection in the Jovian tail : X-line evolution and consequent plasma sheet structures [PDF]

, 2011
Magnetic reconnection in planetary magnetospheres plays important roles in energy and mass transfer in the steady state, and also possibly in transient large-scale disturbances.
