Relating the Phases of Magnetic Reconnection Growth to the Temporal Evolution of X-line Structures in a Collisionless Plasma
D. S. Payne, R. B. Torbert, K. Germaschewski +2
The efficiency of energy conversion during magnetic reconnection is related to the reconnection rate. While the stable reconnection rate has been studied extensively, its growth be…

Magnetic reconnection mediated by hyper-resistive plasmoid instability
Yi-Min Huang, A. Bhattacharjee, Terry G. Forbes
Magnetic reconnection mediated by the hyper-resistive plasmoid instability is studied with both linear analysis and nonlinear simulations. The linear growth rate is found to scale…
