Energy redistribution during 2D oscillatory reconnection
Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Jordan Talbot, Gert J. J. Botha +4
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental energy release mechanism in solar and space plasmas. However, the distribution of released magnetic energy among kinetic and internal (therma…
Fast Magnetoacoustic Wave Behavior within Gravitationally Stratified, Magnetically Inhomogeneous Media
Ryan T. Smith, James A. McLaughlin, Gert J. J. Botha
The nature of MHD waves within inhomogeneous media is fundamental to understanding and interpreting wave behavior in the solar atmosphere. We investigate fast magnetoacoustic wave…
Wave generation via oscillatory reconnection at a three-dimensional magnetic null point
Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Gert J. J. Botha, James A. McLaughlin
This work conducts a three-dimensional (3D), nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation to investigate wave generating, time-dependent reconnection around a magnetic null point…
Time-dependent Turbulent Electron Acceleration and Transport in Solar Flares
Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Natasha L. S. Jeffrey, Gert J. J. Botha +1
Solar flares are explosive releases of magnetic energy stored in the solar corona, driven by magnetic reconnection. These events accelerate electrons, generating hard X-ray emissio…
The periodicity of three-dimensional oscillatory reconnection
Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Gert J. J. Botha, James A. McLaughlin
Oscillatory reconnection is a dynamic, magnetic relaxation mechanism in which a perturbed null point reverts back to equilibrium via time-dependent reconnection. In this paper, we…
Solar Vortices as Conduits for Magnetoacoustic Waves: Multi-Layer Coupling and Their Role in Atmospheric Heating
Suzana S. A. Silva, Ioannis Dakanalis, Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo +10
Vortices are widespread throughout the solar atmosphere and commonly interpreted as channels for Alfvén wave energy transport. However, this interpretation has mostly been inferred…
Modeling the effects of a lightbridge on oscillations in a solar pore
Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Mykola Gordovskyy, Philippa K. Browning +7
Solar pores are ideal magnetic structures for wave propagation and transport of energy radially-outwards across the upper layers of the solar atmosphere. We aim to model the excita…
Self-similar solutions of oscillatory reconnection: parameter study of magnetic field strength and background temperature
Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Gert J. J. Botha, James A. McLaughlin
Oscillatory reconnection is a specific type of time-dependent reconnection which involves periodic changes in the magnetic topology of a null point. The mechanism has been reported…
The Effect of Resistivity on the Periodicity of Oscillatory Reconnection
Jordan Talbot, James A. McLaughlin, Gert J. J. Botha +1
The oscillatory reconnection mechanism is investigated for a parameter study of eight orders of magnitude of resistivity, with a particular interest in the evolution of the oscilla…
On the periodicity of linear and nonlinear oscillatory reconnection
J. O. Thurgood, D. I. Pontin, J. A. McLaughlin
(Abridged for ArXiv) An injection of energy towards a magnetic null point can drive reversals of current sheet polarity leading to time-dependent Oscillatory Reconnection, which is…
