Energy redistribution during 2D oscillatory reconnection

Luiz A. C. A. Schiavo, Jordan Talbot, Gert J. J. Botha +4

Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental energy release mechanism in solar and space plasmas. However, the distribution of released magnetic energy among kinetic and internal (therma…

Partially-ionised two-fluid shocks with collisional and radiative ionisation and recombination -- multi-level hydrogen model

B. Snow, M. Druett, A. Hillier

Explosive phenomena are known to trigger a wealth of shocks in warm plasma environments, including the solar chromosphere and molecular clouds where the medium consists of both ion…

The role of cooling induced by mixing in the mass and energy cycles of the solar atmosphere

Andrew Hillier, Ben Snow, Inigo Arregui

In many astrophysical systems, mixing between cool and hot temperature gas/plasma through Kelvin-Helmholtz-instability-driven turbulence leads to the formation of an intermediate t…

Shocks and instabilities in the partially ionised solar atmosphere

Andrew Hillier, Ben Snow

The low solar atmosphere is composed of mostly neutral particles, but the importance of the magnetic field for understanding observed dynamics means that interactions between charg…

Collisional ionisation and recombination effects on coalescence instability in chromospheric partially ionised plasmas

Giulia Murtas, Andrew Hillier, Ben Snow

Plasmoid-mediated fast magnetic reconnection plays a fundamental role in driving explosive dynamics and heating, but relatively little is known about how it develops in partially i…

Shock identification and classification in 2D MHD compressible turbulence -- Orszag-Tang vortex

B. Snow, A. Hillier, G. Murtas +1

Compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is a common feature of astrophysical systems such as the solar atmosphere and interstellar medium. Such systems are rife with shoc…
