Onset of 2D magnetic reconnection in the solar photosphere, chromosphere and corona
B. Snow, G. J. J. Botha, J. A. McLaughlin +1
We investigate the onset of 2D time-dependent magnetic reconnection that is triggered using an external velocity driver located away from, and perpendicular to, an equilibrium Harr…
Three-dimensional oscillatory magnetic reconnection
J. O. Thurgood, D. I. Pontin, J. A. McLaughlin
Here we detail the dynamic evolution of localised reconnection regions about three-dimensional (3D) magnetic null points by using numerical simulation. We demonstrate for the first…
On the Periodicity of Oscillatory Reconnection
J. A. McLaughlin, J. O. Thurgood, D. MacTaggart
Oscillatory reconnection is a time-dependent magnetic reconnection mechanism that naturally produces periodic outputs from aperiodic drivers. This paper aims to quantify and measur…
MHD wave propagation in the neighbourhood of a two-dimensional null point
J. A. McLaughlin, A. W. Hood
The nature of fast magnetoacoustic and Alfvén waves is investigated in a zero plasma. This gives an indication of wave propagation in the low solar corona. It is found that…
Magnetohydrodynamics wave propagation in the neighbourhood of two dipoles
J. A. McLaughlin, A. W. Hood
This paper is the third in a series of investigations by the authors. The nature of fast magnetoacoustic and Alfvén waves is investigated in a 2D plasma in the neighbourhood…
