Reduced magnetohydrodynamic theory of oblique plasmoid instabilities
S. D. Baalrud, A. Bhattacharjee, Y. -M. Huang
The three-dimensional nature of plasmoid instabilities is studied using the reduced magnetohydrodynamic equations. For a Harris equilibrium with guide field, represented by $\vc{B}…

Hall magnetohydrodynamic reconnection in the plasmoid unstable regime
S. D. Baalrud, A. Bhattacharjee, Y. -M. Huang +1
A set of reduced Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations are used to evaluate the stability of large aspect ratio current sheets to the formation of plasmoids (secondary islands).…
