Plasmoid-Trapped Condensation Associated with a Transient Thermal-Instability-Like Process in Chromospheric Magnetic Reconnection
Abdullah Zafar, Lei Ni, Samrat Sen +4
We perform high-resolution 2.5D single-fluid magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to explore the development of cool-dense structures within plasmoids during chromospheric magneti…
Coronal Mass Ejections Deflected by Newly Emerging Flux: A Combined Analytic and Numerical Study
Yuhao Chen, Chengcai Shen, Zhixing Mei +8
Newly emerging flux (NEF) has been widely studied as a trigger of solar filament eruptions, but its influence on the subsequent dynamics remains poorly explored. Because NEF typica…
The effect of plasma- on the heating mechanisms during magnetic reconnection in partially ionized low solar atmosphere
Abdullah Zafar, Lei Ni, Kaifeng Kang +5
We performed numerical simulations of magnetic reconnection with different strength of magnetic fields from the solar photosphere to the upper chromosphere. The main emphasis is to…
Numerical simulation of oscillatory magnetic reconnection modulated by solar convective motions
Yifu Wang, Lei Ni, Guanchong Cheng +3
Oscillatory magnetic reconnection is a periodic magnetic reconnection process, during which the current sheet's orientation and the magnetic connections change periodically. This p…
Unraveling the Trigger Mechanism of Explosive Reconnection in Partially Ionized Solar Plasma
Abdullah Zafar, Lei Ni, Jun Lin +1
Plasmoid instability is usually accounted for the onset of fast reconnection events observed in astrophysical plasmas. However, the measured reconnection rate from observations can…
