15 صفحه اولExplosive turbulent magnetic reconnection.
We report simulation results for turbulent magnetic reconnection obtained using a newly developed Reynolds-averaged magnetohydrodynamics model. We find that the initial Harris current sheet develops in three ways, depending on the strength of turbulence: laminar reconnection, turbulent reconnection, and turbulent diffusion. The turbulent reconnection explosively converts the magnetic field ener...
متن کاملTurbulent impulsive magnetic energy release from electron scale reconnection
Magnetic reconnection may occur as bursts of nonlinear plasma dynamics on the electron collisionless skin length scale de=c / pe, during which a large fraction of the magnetic energy is converted to plasma thermal energy and plasma flow energy. An example of such a bursty energy release event is given with a simple set of electron Hall equations. The energization mechanism is the cross-field co...
متن کاملTurbulent Magnetic Reconnection in Two Dimensions
Two-dimensional numerical simulations of the effect of background turbulence on 2D resistive magnetic reconnection are presented. For sufficiently small values of the resistivity (η) and moderate values of the turbulent power ( ), the reconnection rate is found to have a much weaker dependence on η than the Sweet-Parker scaling of η and is even consistent with an η-independent value. For a give...
متن کاملGeneration of Alfvén Waves by Small-Scale Magnetic Reconnection in Solar Spicules
Alfvén waves dissipation is an extensively studied mechanism for the coronal heating problem. These waves can be generated by magnetic reconnection and propagated along the reconnected field lines. Here, we study the generation of Alfvén waves at the presence of both steady flow and sheared magnetic field in the longitudinally density stratified of solar spicules. The initial flow is assumed to...
