The appearance, motion, and disappearance of three-dimensional magnetic null points

Nicholas A. Murphy, Clare E. Parnell, Andrew L. Haynes

While theoretical models and simulations of magnetic reconnection often assume symmetry such that the magnetic null point when present is co-located with a flow stagnation point, t…

The magnetic structure of surges in small-scale emerging flux regions

David MacTaggart, Salvo Guglielmino, Andrew Haynes +2

Aims: To investigate the relationship between surges and magnetic reconnection during the emergence of small-scale active regions. In particular, to examine how the large-scale geo…

The nature of separator current layers in MHS equilibria I. Current parallel to the separator

J. E. H. Stevenson, C. E. Parnell, E. R. Priest +1

Separators, which are in many ways the three-dimensional equivalent to two-dimensional nulls, are important sites for magnetic reconnection. Magnetic reconnection occurs in strong…

The Solar Cycle Variation of Topological Structures in the Global Solar Corona

Sarah J. Platten, Clare E. Parnell, Andrew L. Haynes +2

The distribution of magnetic flux across the solar photosphere results in a complex web of coronal magnetic field structures. To understand this complexity, the magnetic skeleton o…

On magnetic reconnection and flux rope topology in solar flux emergence

David MacTaggart, Andrew Haynes

We present an analysis of the formation of atmospheric flux ropes in a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) solar flux emergence simulation. The simulation domain ranges from the top of the s…

Three-Dimensional Magnetic Reconnection

Clare E. Parnell, Andrew L. Haynes

The importance of magnetic reconnection as an energy release mechanism in many solar, stellar, magnetospheric and astrophysical phenomena has long been recognised. Reconnection is…
