Reconnection Mediated by Magnetic Fractures and the Solar Flare

The Astrophysical Journal, 2018
AbstractReconnection of sheared magnetic fields is commonly treated by regarding the component perpendicular to the antiparallel components as a largely inert guide field. In this paper an alternative is proposed in which the free energy residing in the shear field is being converted prior to reconnection.

Magnetic Reconnection in Extreme Astrophysical Environments

, 2011
Magnetic reconnection is a basic plasma process of dramatic rearrangement of magnetic topology, often leading to a violent release of magnetic energy. It is important in magnetic fusion and in space and solar physics --- areas that have so far provided ...

Turbulent General Magnetic Reconnection

, 2014
Plasma flows with an MHD-like turbulent inertial range, such as the solar wind, require a generalization of General Magnetic Reconnection (GMR) theory. We introduce the slip-velocity source vector, which gives the rate of development of slip velocity per

From Photospheric Footpoint Motion to Plasmoid Ejection: A Two-stage Reconnection Process in a Small-scale Chromospheric Jet

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Using high-spatiotemporal-resolution multiwavelength observations from the New Vacuum Solar Telescope and the Solar Dynamics Observatory, we present a detailed analysis of a small-scale chromospheric jet driven by plasmoid-mediated magnetic reconnection.

Magnetic reconnection exhausts in the solar wind

, 2016
The restructuring of magnetic fields in plasmas through the process of magnetic reconnection is important in laboratory experiments, magnetospheres and many astrophysical systems. In-situ observations of reconnection processes in the near-Earth environment provide an excellent opportunity to probe the physics of magnetic reconnection. In the solar wind,

Formation of Fan-spine Magnetic Topology through Flux Emergence and Subsequent Jet Production

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Fan-spine magnetic structure, as a fundamental three-dimensional topology in magnetic reconnection theory, plays a crucial role in producing solar jets. However, how fan-spine configurations form in the solar atmosphere remains elusive. Using the Chinese

Pinching of ICME Flux Rope: Unprecedented Multipoint Observations of Internal Magnetic Reconnection during Gannon’s Superstorm

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The extreme solar storm of 2024 May 10, during the 25th solar cycle, which recorded a symmetric H component index (Sym-H) reaching −500 nT, was the strongest since the 2003 Halloween storm.
