On the Cause of Supra-Arcade Downflows in Solar Flares [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A model of supra-arcade downflows (SADs), dark low density regions also known as tadpoles that propagate sunward during solar flares, is presented. It is argued that the regions of low density are flow channels carved by sunward-directed outflow jets ...

A Physics‐Informed Neural Network Approach to the Gannon Storm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Extreme geomagnetic storms, such as the May 2024 Gannon event, pose significant risks to technological infrastructure, requiring robust forecasting models. Here, we apply Physics‐Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) to the Burton equation to model the storm's ring current dynamics by studying the temporal evolution of the SuperMAG SMR index during

Theory and Applications of Non-Relativistic and Relativistic Turbulent Reconnection

open access: yes, 2015
Realistic astrophysical environments are turbulent due to the extremely high Reynolds numbers. Therefore, the theories of reconnection intended for describing astrophysical reconnection should not ignore the effects of turbulence on magnetic reconnection.

Asymmetrically Distributed Kelvin‐Helmholtz Instability at Venusian Magnetosphere

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The asymmetric distribution of Kelvin‐Helmholtz (KH) instability at Venusian ionopause is investigated using a multifluid model. Results show that KH instability distributes asymmetrically, preferentially developing in the −E (anti‐parallel to the interplanetary electric field) hemisphere.

Observations of a Two-sided Loop Jet and Magnetic Reconnection Involving a Medium-scale Filament Eruption

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Although multiscale filament eruptions serve as significant triggers for various energetic release processes in the solar atmosphere, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

Comparison of Magnetospheric Multiscale ion jet signatures with predicted reconnection site locations at the magnetopause

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Magnetic reconnection at the Earth's magnetopause is the primary process by which solar wind plasma and energy gains access to the magnetosphere. One indication that magnetic reconnection is occurring is the observation of accelerated plasma as a jet ...

Reconnection in substorms and solar flares: analogies and differences [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2009
Magnetic reconnection is the crucial process in the release of magnetic energy associated with magnetospheric substorms and with solar flares. On the basis of three-dimensional resistive MHD simulations we investigate similarities and differences ...

Dynamic Responses to Magnetic Reconnection in Solar Arcades [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1998
We present a numerical simulation of the interaction between two line dipoles through magnetic reconnection in the lower solar atmosphere, a process believed to be the origin of many manifestations of solar activity. This work differs from previous studies in that the field is sheared asymmetrically and that the dipoles have markedly unequal field ...

Reconnection Preferentially Accelerates Light Ions at Ganymede's Magnetopause

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Juno's flyby of Ganymede revealed ion composition in its vicinity with the Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment–Ion (JADE‐I) instrument. Throughout this flyby, we derive species‐resolved ion density and velocity moments by decomposing the time‐of‐flight data into contributions from individual ion species using species‐dependent fits. At the

Magnetopause reconnection and interlinked flux tubes [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
Magnetic reconnection can be a continuous or a transient process. Global magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations are important tools to understand the relevant magnetic reconnection mechanisms and the resulting magnetic structures.
