Reconnectionless CME eruption: putting the Aly-Sturrock conjecture to rest
L. A. Rachmeler, C. E. DeForest, C. C. Kankelborg
We demonstrate that magnetic reconnection is not necessary to initiate fast CMEs. The Aly-Sturrock conjecture states that the magnetic energy of a given force free boundary field i…
Characterizing the Gravitational Wave Signature from Cosmic String Cusps
Joey Shapiro Key, Neil J. Cornish
Cosmic strings are predicted to form kinks and cusps that travel along the string at close to the speed of light. These disturbances are radiated away as highly beamed gravitationa…
Semi-classical limit and minimum decoherence in the Conditional Probability Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics
Vincent Corbin, Neil J. Cornish
The Conditional Probability Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics replaces the abstract notion of time used in standard Quantum Mechanics by the time that can be read off from a phys…
Effects of partitioning and extrapolation on the connectivity of potential magnetic fields
D. W. Longcope, G. Barnes, C. Beveridge
Coronal magnetic field may be characterized by how its field lines interconnect regions of opposing photospheric flux -- its connectivity. Connectivity can be quantified as the net…
Giant electro-thermal conductivity and spin-phonon coupling in an antiferromagnetic oxide
C. Chiorescu, J. J. Neumeier, J. L. Cohn
The application of weak electric fields (<~ 100 V/cm) is found to dramatically enhance the lattice thermal conductivity of the antiferromagnetic (AF) insulator CaMnO(3) over a broa…
Gas-dynamic shock heating of post-flare loops due to retraction following localized, impulsive reconnection
D. W. Longcope, S. E. Guidoni, M. G. Linton
We present a novel model in which shortening of a magnetic flux tube following localized, three-dimensional reconnection generates strong gas-dynamic shocks around its apex. The sh…
