Abstract: | There have been many significant advances in understanding magnetic field reconnection as a result of improved space measurements
and two-dimensional computer simulations. While reviews of recent work have tended to focus on symmetric reconnection on ion
and larger spatial scales, the present review will focus on asymmetric reconnection and on electron scale physics involving
the reconnection site, parallel electric fields, and electron acceleration. |
