MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC SIMULATIONS OF RECONNECTION AND PARTICLE ACCELERATION: THREE-DIMENSIONAL EFFECTS
MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC SIMULATIONS OF RECONNECTION AND PARTICLE ACCELERATION: THREE-DIMENSIONAL EFFECTS
The magnetic fields can change their topology through a process known as magnetic reconnection. This process in not only important for understanding the origin and evolution of the large-scale magnetic field, but is seen as a possibly efficient particle accelerator producing cosmic rays mainly through the first order Fermi process. …
