Petschek-like Reconnection with Current-driven Anomalous Resistivity and its Application to Solar Flares
Dmitri A. Uzdensky
Recent numerical simulations of magnetic reconnection in two dimensions have shown that, when the resistivity is strongly localized, the reconnection region develops a Petschek-lik…

Dynamics of relativistic reconnection
Maxim Lyutikov, Dmitri Uzdensky
The dynamics of the steady-state Sweet--Parker-type reconnection is analyzed in relativistic regime when energy density in the inflowing region is dominated by magnetic field. The…
