Analytical Description of Steady Magnetic Reconnection in Hall Magnetohydrodynamics [PDF]
Steady magnetic reconnection in the framework of incompressible Hall magnetohydrodynamics is considered. The principal role of the Hall effect in the formation of the structure of the reconnecting current sheet is emphasized.

Analytic solutions of the magnetic annihilation and reconnection problems. I. Planar flow profiles [PDF]
The phenomena of steady-state magnetic annihilation and reconnection in the vicinity of magnetic nulls are considered. It is shown that reconnective solutions can be derived by superposing the velocity and magnetic fields of simple magnetic annihilation ...

Characterising solar magnetic reconnection in confined and eruptive flares
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental mechanism through which energy stored in magnetic fields is released explosively on a massive scale, they could be presented as eruptive or confined flares, depending on their association with coronal mass ejections (CMEs).

Fast plasmoid-mediated reconnection in a solar flare
Solar flares provide wide range of observational details about fundamental processes involved. Here, the authors show evidence for magnetic reconnection in a strong confined solar flare displaying all four reconnection flows with plasmoids in the current

Estimates of magnetotail reconnection rate based on IMAGE FUV and EISCAT measurements [PDF]
Dayside merging between the interplanetary and terrestrial magnetic fields couples the solar wind electric field to the Earth's magnetosphere, increases the magnetospheric convection and results in efficient transport of solar wind energy into the ...

Fractal Reconnection in Solar and Stellar Environments
Recent space based observations of the Sun revealed that magnetic reconnection is ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere, ranging from small scale reconnection (observed as nanoflares) to large scale one (observed as long duration flares or giant arcades ...

Achieving fast reconnection in resistive MHD models via turbulent means [PDF]
Astrophysical fluids are generally turbulent and this preexisting turbulence must be taken into account for models of magnetic reconnection in astrophysical, solar or heliospheric environments.

Can the Solar Wind be Driven by Magnetic Reconnection in the Sun's Magnetic Carpet? [PDF]
The physical processes that heat the solar corona and accelerate the solar wind remain unknown after many years of study. Some have suggested that the wind is driven by waves and turbulence in open magnetic flux tubes, and others have suggested that ...
