The Criterion of Magnetic Reconnection in the Solar Wind

2015
Ever since the “direct evidence” of magnetic reconnection in solar wind has been proposed by Gosling et al. (2005a), many reconnection exhausts are reported (Gosling et al. 2005a, b; Davis et al. 2006; Phan et al. 2006; Gosling et al. 2007a, b; Huttunen et al. 2007; Lavraud et al. 2009; Tian et al. 2010; Wang et al. 2010; Gosling 2011; Xu et al. 2011).

Role of magnetic reconnection in solar flares

Advances in Space Research, 1986
Abstract The behaviour of the magnetic field in the solar atmosphere is governed by the equations of MHD rather than the electromagnetism of wires. In particular, the roles of magnetic reconnection are: to create small flares; to trigger large flares; and to release magnetic energy in large flares.

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,

Magnetic Reconnection in the Solar Lower Atmosphere

2002
ABSTRACT There are many active phenomena, such as Ellerman bombs (EBs), Type II white-light flares (WLFs) etc, appear in the solar lower atmosphere. They have many common features despite of the large energy gap between them. They are considered to result from the local heating in the solar lower atmosphere.

Evidence of Magnetic Reconnection in Solar Flares

1996
The detailed analysis of the 1992 February 21 flare indicates that magnetic reconnection is responsible for heating of the thermal plasmas produced in the flare. The plasma density enhancement presumably associated with slow shocks is observed. The Yohkoh observations of this flare fit well with the Petschek model, and the structure of the slow shock ...
