In this review we focus on the fundamental theory of magnetohydrodynamic reconnection,
together with applications to understanding a wide range of dynamic processes in the solar …

Astrophysical plasmas have the remarkable ability to preserve magnetic topology, which
inevitably gives rise to the accumulation of magnetic energy within stressed regions …

A concise review is given on the past two decades' results from laboratory experiments on
collisionless magnetic reconnection in direct relation with space measurements, especially …

Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous plasma process that transforms magnetic energy into
particle energy during eruptive events throughout the universe. Reconnection not only …

Magnetic reconnection is the physical process that converts the energy from the fields to the
plasmas in space, astrophysical and laboratory plasmas. The Reconnection front (RF) is the …

Magnetic reconnection in strongly magnetized astrophysical plasma environments is
believed to be the primary process for fast energy release and particle energization …

Magnetic reconnection underlies the physical mechanism of explosive phenomena in the
solar atmosphere and planetary magnetospheres, where plasma is usually collisionless. In …

We report in situ observations of an electron diffusion region (EDR) and adjacent separatrix
region in the Earth's magnetotail. We observe significant magnetic field oscillations near the …

There is ample evidence for magnetic reconnection in the solar system, but it is a nontrivial
task to visualize, to determine the proper approaches and frames to study, and in turn to …

Magnetic reconnection is a universal phenomenon existing in the space. Energy conversion
is one of the essential parts of reconnection discussed for decades. Positive energy …
