Analytical Description of Steady Magnetic Reconnection in Hall Magnetohydrodynamics [PDF]
, 2009 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]
, 1997 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
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2023 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
Nature Communications, 2022 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]
Annales Geophysicae, 2005 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 ...

Proton acceleration in analytic reconnecting current sheets [PDF]
, 2002 Particle acceleration provides an important signature for the magnetic collapse that accompanies a solar flare. Most particle acceleration studies, however, invoke magnetic and electric field models that are analytically convenient rather than solutions ...

Achieving fast reconnection in resistive MHD models via turbulent means [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2012 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.

Signatures of magnetic reconnection at boundaries of interplanetary small-scale magnetic flux ropes
, 2010 The interaction between interplanetary small-scale magnetic flux ropes and the magnetic field in the ambient solar wind is an important topic to understand- ing the evolution of magnetic structures in the heliosphere.
