The Interplay Between Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection and Turbulence

JE Stawarz, PA Muñoz, N Bessho… - Space Science …, 2024 - Springer
Alongside magnetic reconnection, turbulence is another fundamental nonlinear plasma
phenomenon that plays a key role in energy transport and conversion in space and …

Multiple subscale magnetic reconnection embedded inside a heliospheric current sheet reconnection exhaust: evidence for flux rope merging

TD Phan, JF Drake, D Larson, M Oieroset… - The Astrophysical …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We report observations of multiple subscale reconnecting current sheets embedded inside a
large-scale heliospheric current sheet (HCS) reconnection exhaust. The discovery was …

Radial evolution of a density structure within a solar wind magnetic sector boundary

E Berriot, P Démoulin, O Alexandrova… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
This study focuses on a radial alignment between Parker Solar Probe (PSP) and Solar
Orbiter (SolO) on the 29$^{\text {th}} $ of April 2021 (during a solar minimum), when the two …

Suppression of the collisionless tearing mode by flow shear: implications for reconnection onset in the Alfv\'enic solar wind

A Mallet, S Eriksson, M Swisdak, J Juno - arXiv preprint arXiv:2412.01796, 2024 - arxiv.org
We analyse the collisionless tearing mode instability of a current sheet with a strong shear
flow across the layer. The growth rate decreases with increasing shear flow, and is …

A 22-Year Cycle of the Network Topology for Solar Active Regions

E Flández, A Zamorano, V Muñoz - arXiv preprint arXiv:2412.12047, 2024 - arxiv.org
In this paper, solar cycles 21 to 24 were compared using complex network analysis. A
network was constructed for these four solar cycles to facilitate the comparison. In these …
