Fractal Reconnection in Solar and Stellar Environments

, 2016
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 ...

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 ...

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.

Plasmoid-Induced-Reconnection and Fractal Reconnection [PDF]

, 2000
As a key to undertanding the basic mechanism for fast reconnection in solar flares, plasmoid-induced-reconnection and fractal reconnection are proposed and examined.

Kinetic Scale Magnetic Reconnection with a Turbulent Forcing: Particle-in-cell Simulations

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Turbulent magnetic reconnection has been observed by spacecraft to occur commonly in terrestrial magnetosphere and the solar wind, providing a new scenario of kinetic scale magnetic reconnection.

The Magnetic Corona: Magnetic Reconnection in Solar Flares [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004
The ability of the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer (TRACE) to image the Sun at high spatial resolution and high cadence over a very broad range of temperatures makes it a unique instrument for observing solar flare plasma. TRACE observations have confirmed the reconnection model for solar flares, at least qualitatively.

First-principles theory of the rate of magnetic reconnection in magnetospheric and solar plasmas

Communications Physics, 2022
Different models exist to characterize magnetic reconnection, a process that converts magnetic energy into plasma thermal and kinetic energy, but a quantitative theoretical predictive model of how rapidly it proceeds has been lacking.

Two Energy Release Processes for CMEs: MHD Catastrophe and Magnetic Reconnection

, 2007
It remains an open question how magnetic energy is rapidly released in the solar corona so as to create solar explosions such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs).

Magnetic Reconnection in Strongly Magnetized Regions of the Low Solar Chromosphere [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2018
Abstract Magnetic reconnection in strongly magnetized regions around the temperature minimum region of the low solar atmosphere is studied by employing MHD-based simulations of a partially ionized plasma within a reactive 2.5D multi-fluid model.
