Particle-in-Cell Simulations of Collisionless Magnetic Reconnection with a Non-Uniform Guide Field
Fiona Wilson, Thomas Neukirch, Michael Hesse +2
Results are presented of a first study of collisionless magnetic reconnection starting from a recently found exact nonlinear force-free Vlasov-Maxwell equilibrium. The initial stat…

Quantifying three dimensional reconnection in fragmented current layers
Peter F. Wyper, Michael Hesse
There is growing evidence that when magnetic reconnection occurs in high Lundquist number plasmas such as in the Solar Corona or the Earth's Magnetosphere it does so within a fragm…
