Fast magnetic reconnection in free space: self-similar evolution process
We present a new model for time evolution of fast magnetic reconnection in free space, which is characterized by self-similarity. Reconnection triggered by locally enhanced resistivity assumed at the center of the current sheet can self-similarly and unlimitedly evolve until external factors affect the evolution. The possibility and stability of this type of evolution are verified by numerical ...
متن کاملA model of vortex reconnection
A model i s proposed to describe the breaking and rejoining of vortex lines which occurs when vortex filaments of equal and opposite strengths touch. It is based on the idea that viscosity cancels the vorticity where the filaments first touch. The weakening of the centrifugal force in the vortex core then leads to a local increase in the pressure which accelerates the fluid in the cores in the ...
متن کاملReconnection of colliding vortex rings.
We investigate numerically the Navier-Stokes dynamics of reconnecting vortex rings at small Reynolds number for a variety of configurations. We find that reconnections are dissipative due to the smoothing of vorticity gradients at reconnection kinks and to the formation of secondary structures of stretched antiparallel vorticity which transfer kinetic energy to small scales where it is subseque...

متن کاملAnalytical solution for nonlinear Schrödinger vortex reconnection
Analysis of the nonlinear Schrödinger vortex reconnection is given in terms of coordinate-time power series. The lowest order terms in these series correspond to a solution of the linear Schrödinger equation and provide several interesting properties of the reconnection process, in particular the nonsingular character of reconnections, the anti-parallel configuration of vortex filaments and a s...
