We introduce how the catastrophe model for solar eruptions predicted the formation and
development of the long current sheet (CS) and how the observations were used to …

Nonthermal electron acceleration via magnetic reconnection is thought to play an important
role in powering the variable X-ray emission from radiatively inefficient accretion flows …

Magnetic reconnection is the topological reconfiguration of the magnetic field in a plasma,
accompanied by the violent release of energy and particle acceleration. Reconnection is as …

It has been established that the Sweet–Parker current layer in high Lundquist number
reconnection is unstable to the super-Alfvénic plasmoid instability. Past two-dimensional …

Magnetic reconnection in the partially ionized solar chromosphere is studied in 2.5
dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations including radiative cooling and ambipolar …

We present results from the first self-consistent multi-fluid simulations of chromospheric
magnetic reconnection in a weakly ionized reacting plasma. We simulate two-dimensional …

Context. Coronal jets are one type of ubiquitous small-scale activity that is caused by
magnetic reconnection in the solar corona. They are often associated with cool surges in the …

Our understanding of magnetic reconnection (MR) under chromospheric conditions remains
limited. Recent observations have demonstrated the important role of ion–neutral …

We perform 2D particle-in-cell simulations of magnetic reconnection in electron-ion plasmas
subject to strong Compton cooling and calculate the X-ray spectra produced by this process …
