Dynamic evolution of current sheets, ideal tearing, plasmoid formation and generalized fractal reconnection scaling relations
Alkendra Singh, Fulvia Pucci, Anna Tenerani +3
Magnetic reconnection may be the fundamental process allowing energy stored in magnetic fields to be released abruptly, solar flares and coronal mass ejection (CME) being archetypa…
