Patchy Reconnection in a Y-Type Current Sheet
M. G. Linton, C. R. DeVore, D. W. Longcope
We study the evolution of the magnetic field in a Y-type current sheet subject to a brief, localized magnetic reconnection event. The reconnection produces up- and down-flowing rec…
Structure and Dynamics of the Sun's Open Magnetic Field
S. K. Antiochos, C. R. DeVore, J. T. Karpen +1
The solar magnetic field is the primary agent that drives solar activity and couples the Sun to the Heliosphere. Although the details of this coupling depend on the quantitative pr…
The Role of Helicity in Magnetic Reconnection: 3D Numerical Simulations
Spiro K. Antiochos, C. Richard DeVore
We demonstrate that conservation of global helicity plays only a minor role in determining the nature and consequences of magnetic reconnection in the solar atmosphere. First, we s…
A Model for Solar Coronal Mass Ejections
S. K. Antiochos, C. R. DeVore, J. A. Klimchuk
We propose a new model for the initiation of a solar coronal mass ejection (CME). The model agrees with two properties of CMEs and eruptive flares that have proved to be very diffi…
