Three-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...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Hall Magnetic Reconnection
Public reporting burden for the collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including s...
متن کاملObservations of Separator Reconnection to an Emerging Active Region
Extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) observations of an emerging active region are used to study separator reconnection in the corona. We identify each EUV loop connecting the emerging polarity to a nearby existing active region over the 41 hr period beginning at emergence onset. Their geometrical resemblance to post-reconnection field lines from a magnetic model of the active region pair implicates separ...
متن کاملThree-dimensional particle simulations of collisionless magnetic reconnection
[1] Three-dimensional (3-D) particle simulations are performed in a double current layer configuration to investigate the stability of current sheets and boundary layers which develop during magnetic reconnection of antiparallel fields in collisionless plasma. The strong current layers that develop near the x line remain surprisingly laminar, with no evidence of turbulence and associated anomal...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Structure Of Magnetic Reconnection In A Laboratory Plasma
[1] The local three-dimensional structure of magnetic reconnection has been measured for the first time in a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) laboratory plasma at the Swarthmore Spheromak Experiment. An array of 600 magnetic probes which resolve ion inertial length and MHD time scale dynamics on a single shot basis measured the magnetic structure of partial spheromak merging events. Counter-helicity s...
