Electric/magnetic flux tube on the background of magnetic/electric field
One of the more fascinating aspects of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is a quark confinement. The phenomenon of the confinement of quarks is connected with a hypothesized flux tube filled with the color electric field and stretched between quark and antiquark. This situation is in contrast with the electron and positron pair where the force lines in the whole space are spread. The confinement is ...
متن کاملPulsating Magnetic Reconnection Driven by Three-Dimensional Flux-Rope Interactions.
The dynamics of magnetic reconnection is investigated in a laboratory experiment consisting of two magnetic flux ropes, with currents slightly above the threshold for the kink instability. The evolution features periodic bursts of magnetic reconnection. To diagnose this complex evolution, volumetric three-dimensional data were acquired for both the magnetic and electric fields, allowing key fie...
متن کاملReconnecting flux-rope dynamo.
We develop a model of the fluctuation dynamo in which the magnetic field is confined to thin flux ropes advected by a multiscale model of turbulence. Magnetic dissipation occurs only via reconnection of the flux ropes. This model can be viewed as an implementation of the asymptotic limit R_{m}-->infinity for a continuous magnetic field, where magnetic dissipation is strongly localized to small ...
متن کاملWhat is a flux tube? On the magnetic field topology of buoyant flux structures
We study the topology of field lines threading buoyant magnetic flux structures. The magnetic structures, visually resembling idealised magnetic flux tubes, are generated self-consistently by numerical simulation of the interaction of magnetic buoyancy and a localized velocity shear in a stably-stratified atmosphere. Depending on the parameters, the system exhibits varying degrees of symmetry. ...
متن کاملDo the Legs of Magnetic Clouds Contain Twisted Flux-rope Magnetic Fields?
Magnetic clouds (MCs) are a subset of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) characterized primarily by a smooth rotation in the magnetic field direction indicative of the presence of a magnetic flux rope. Energetic particle signatures suggest MC flux ropes remain magnetically connected to the Sun at both ends, leading to widely used model of global MC structure as an extended flux rope,...
