Team led graduate student PPPL produces unique magnetic reconnection
2017/9/20
Jonathan Ng, a Princeton University graduate student at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), has for the first time applied a fluid simulation to the space...
Theory of magnetic reconnection in solar and astrophysical plasmas
Theory magnetic reconnection solar astrophysical plasmas
2012/2/23
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process in a plasma that facilitates the release of energy stored in the magnetic field by permitting a change in the magnetic topology. In this article we prese...
Particle Acceleration by Magnetic Reconnection in AGNs and in the IGM

2011/9/9
Recently, secondary island formation due to the tearing instability of the Sweet-Parker current sheet was identified as a possible mechanism that can lead to fast reconnection (less sensitive dependen...
A new method of quality improvement for quadrilateral mesh based on small polygon reconnection
Mesh improvement Topological clean-up Quadrilateral mesh Small polygon reconnection
2012/2/24
In this paper, a new method of topological cleanup for quadrilateral mesh is presented. The method first selects a patch of mesh around an irregular node. It then seeks the best connection of the sele...
The Internal-Collision-Induced Magnetic Reconnection and Turbulence (ICMART) Model of Gamma-Ray Bursts

2010/11/11
The recent Fermi observation of GRB 080916C shows that the bright photosphere emission associated with a putative fireball is missing, which suggests that the central engine likely launches a Poynting...
Jet deflection by very weak guide fields during magnetic reconnection
Jet deflection guide fields magnetic reconnection
2010/11/12
Simulations of antiparallel reconnection have shown collimated electron jets outflowing from the x-point, and associated highly elongated "outer electron diffusion regions." New PIC simulations with i...

Prompt gamma-ray burst (GRB) emission requires some mechanism to dissipate an ultrarelativistic
jet. Internal shocks or some form of electromagnetic dissipation are candidate mechanisms.
