Small-scale Magnetic Reconnection in the Quiet Sun
Recent observations indicate that small-scale magnetic re-connection ubiquitously occurs in the quiet Sun as well as in active regions. Particularly interesting is the latest nding of close associations among (1) magnetic ux cancellation seen from photospheric magne-tograms, (2) chromospheric uppow events seen in the H line and (3) transition region explosive events seen in UV lines. I present ...
متن کاملPerspectives on magnetic reconnection
Magnetic reconnection is a topological rearrangement of magnetic field that occurs on time scales much faster than the global magnetic diffusion time. Since the field lines break on microscopic scales but energy is stored and the field is driven on macroscopic scales, reconnection is an inherently multi-scale process that often involves both magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and kinetic phenomena. In t...
متن کاملMagnetic reconnection
The fundamental physics of magnetic reconnection in laboratory and space plasmas is reviewed by discussing results from theory, numerical simulations, observations from space satellites, and recent results from laboratory plasma experiments. After a brief review of the well-known early work, representative recent experimental and theoretical works are discussed and the essence of significant mo...
متن کاملMagnetic flux transport on the sun.
Although most of the magnetic flux observed on the sun originates in the low-latitude sunspot belts, this flux is gradually dispersed over a much wider range of latitudes by supergranular convective motions and meridional circulation. Numerical simulations show how these transport processes interact over the 11-year sunspot cycle to produce a strong "topknot" polar field, whose existence near s...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Magnetic Reconnection
The importance of magnetic reconnection as an energy release mechanism in many solar, stellar, magnetospheric and astrophysical phenomena has long been recognised. Reconnection is the only mechanism by which magnetic fields can globally restructure, enabling them to access a lower energy state. Over the past decade, there have been some major advances in our understanding of threedimensional re...
