متن کاملScaling of Driven Magnetic Reconnection Rates
Computational experiments in various collisionality regimes show that, when the drive is unambiguously separated from the reconnection region, driven magnetic reconnection, in its idealized and extensively studied two dimensional form, proceeds at a rate determined only by the boundary conditions. Within certain bounds, details of the physics model used in studying this ubiquitous phenomenon pl...
متن کاملReview of controlled laboratory experiments on physics of magnetic reconnection
We review results from the most recent experiments in the past 2 decades in which magnetic reconnection has been generated and studied in controlled laboratory settings. As a whole, research on the fundamental physics of the reconnection process and its hydromagnetic consequences has been largely theoretical. Laboratory experiments are crucial for understanding the fundamental physics of magnet...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Current-Driven Turbulence During Magnetic Reconnection
Magnetic reconnection is an important process in magnetized plasmas ranging from the laboratory to astrophysical scales. It enables the release of magnetic energy believed to power solar flares and magnetospheric substorms. Reconnection also controls the evolution of the topology of the magnetic field, enabling deleterious instabilities, such as the sawtooth instability in fusion experiments, t...
متن کاملObservational Analysis of Magnetic Reconnection Sequence
We conduct comprehensive analysis of an X2.0 flare to derive quantities indicative of magnetic reconnection in solar corona by following temporally and spatially resolved flare ribbon evolution in the lower atmosphere. The analysis reveals a macroscopically distinctive two-stage reconnection (Moore et al. 2001) marked by a clear division in morphological evolution, reconnection rate, and energy...
