Acceleration of Energetic Particles through Reconnection of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Field
A. Lazarian, G. Kowal, E. Gouveia dal Pino +1
Astrophysical media are turbulent and therefore reconnection should be treated in the presence of pre-existing turbulence. We consider the model of fast magnetic reconnection in La…

Relation of Astrophysical Turbulence and Magnetic Reconnection
A. Lazarian, G. Eyink, E. Vishniac
Astrophysical fluids are generically turbulent and this must be taken into account for most transport processes. We discuss how the preexisting turbulence modifies magnetic reconne…

Turbulent magnetic reconnection in 2D and 3D
A. Lazarian, G. Kowal, E. Vishniac +2
Magnetic field embedded in a perfectly conducting fluid preserves its topology for all time. Although ionized astrophysical objects, like stars and galactic disks, are almost perfe…
