This paper outlines the current understanding of solar flares, mainly focused on
magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) processes responsible for producing a flare. Observations …

Magnetic flux ropes are characterized by coherently twisted magnetic field lines, which are
ubiquitous in magnetized plasmas. As the core structure of various eruptive phenomena in …

Reconnection of the self-generated magnetic fields in laser-plasma interaction was first
investigated experimentally by Nilson et al.[Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 255001 (2006) PRLTAO …

We report a detailed examination of the fine structure inside flare ribbons and the temporal
evolution of this fine structure during the X2. 5 solar flare that occurred on 2004 November …

We investigated the dynamic evolution of a three-dimensional (3D) flux rope eruption and
magnetic reconnection process in a solar flare by simply extending the two-dimensional …

The plasmoid-induced reconnection model explaining solar flares based on bursty
reconnection produced by an ejecting plasmoid suggests a possible relation between the …

Recent space based observations of the Sun revealed that magnetic reconnection is
ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere, ranging from small scale reconnection (observed as …

Context. Modern solar X-ray imagers do not completely resolve the problem of deriving
detailed diagnostics of faint hard X-ray sources in the presence of stronger ones. This is the …

We investigate charged particle dynamics and acceleration in the current sheet located in
the reconnection outflow region. We consider parameter ranges corresponding to current …

The limb flare on 1992 January 13, the so-called Masuda flare, has stimulated scientists to
refine theory of solar flares based on two-dimensional magnetic reconnection. This is …
