Onset of Fast Reconnection in Hall Magnetohydrodynamics Mediated by the Plasmoid Instability
Yi-Min Huang, A. Bhattacharjee, Brian P. Sullivan
The role of a super-Alfvénic plasmoid instability in the onset of fast reconnection is studied by means of the largest Hall magnetohydrodynamics simulations to date, with system si…
The scaling of forced collisionless reconnection in two and three dimensions
Brian P. Sullivan, Barrett N. Rogers
This paper presents two-fluid simulations of forced magnetic reconnection with finite electron inertia in a collisionless three-dimensional (3D) cube with periodic boundaries in al…
Extension of the Electron Dissipation Region in Collisionless Hall MHD Reconnection
Brian P. Sullivan, A. Bhattacharjee, Yi-Min Huang
This paper presents Sweet-Parker type scaling arguments in the context of hyper-resistive Hall magnetohyrdodynamics (MHD). The predicted steady state scalings are consistent with t…
