Determining the 3D Dynamics of Solar Flare Magnetic Reconnection

Joel T. Dahlin, Spiro K. Antiochos, Peter F. Wyper +2

Solar flares are major space weather events that result from the explosive conversion of stored magnetic energy into bulk motion, plasma heating, and particle acceleration. While t…

Synthetic Remote-sensing and In-situ Observations of Fine-scale Structure in a Pseudostreamer Coronal Mass Ejection through the Solar Corona

B. J. Lynch, P. F. Wyper, E. Palmerio +11

Coronal pseudostreamer flux systems have a specific magnetic configuration that influences the morphology and evolution of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from these regions. Here we…

X-ray/Radio Quasi-periodic Pulsations Associated with Plasmoids in Solar Flare Current Sheets

Pankaj Kumar, Judith T. Karpen, Joel T. Dahlin

Plasmoids (or magnetic islands) are believed to play an important role in the onset of fast magnetic reconnection and particle acceleration during solar flares and eruptions. Direc…

The Role of Magnetic Shear in Reconnection-Driven Flare Energy Release

J. Qiu, M. Alaoui, S. K. Antiochos +6

Using observations from the Solar Dynamics Observatory's Atmosphere Imaging Assembly and the Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager, we present novel measurements of the she…

Variability of the Reconnection Guide Field in Solar Flares

Joel T. Dahlin, Spiro K. Antiochos, Jiong Qiu +1

Solar flares may be the best-known examples of the explosive conversion of magnetic energy into bulk motion, plasma heating, and particle acceleration via magnetic reconnection. Th…

Modeling a Coronal Mass Ejection from an Extended Filament Channel. I. Eruption and Early Evolution

Benjamin J. Lynch, Erika Palmerio, C. Richard DeVore +4

We present observations and modeling of the magnetic field configuration, morphology, and dynamics of a large-scale, high-latitude filament eruption observed by the Solar Dynamics…

A Model for Energy Buildup and Eruption Onset in Coronal Mass Ejections

Joel T. Dahlin, Spiro K. Antiochos, C. Richard DeVore

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and eruptive flares (EFs) are the most energetic explosions in the solar system. Their underlying origin is the free energy that builds up slowly in t…

Astro2020 Science White Paper: Probing Magnetic Reconnection in Solar Flares - New Perspectives from Radio Dynamic Imaging Spectroscopy

Bin Chen, Tim Bastian, Joel Dahlin +9

Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental physical process in many laboratory, space, and astrophysical plasma contexts. Solar flares serve as an outstanding laboratory to study the m…

A computational model for exploring particle acceleration during reconnection in macro-scale systems

J. F. Drake, H. Arnold, M. Swisdak +1

A new computational model is presented suitable for exploring the self-consistent production of energetic electrons during magnetic reconnection in macroscale systems. The equation…
