My Recent Study about Turbulent Reconnection • Talk at MR 2003 • Internal shocks created by some instabilities and Turbulence in the reconnection jet
Turbulent Reconnection • Matthaeus & Lamkin 1985, Phys. Fluids, 28, 303, ‘Rapid magnetic reconnection caused byu finite amplitude fluctuations’ • Matthaeus & Lamkin 1986, Phys. Fluids, 29, 2513, ‘Turbulent magnetic reconnection’ • Enhanced viscous and resistive dissipation
Turbulent Reconnection
Coronal Heating by Turbulence • Matthaeus et al. 1999, Ap. J, 523, L 93, ‘Coronal heating by magnetohydrodynamic turbulence driven by reflected low-frequency waves’
Reconnection Rate Enhanced by Turbulence • Vishniac & Lazarian 1999, Ap. J, 511, 193, ‘Reconnection in the interstellar medium’ • Lazarian & Bishniac, 1999, Ap. J, 517, 700, ‘Reconnection in a weakly stochastic field’
Reconnection Rate Enhanced by Neutral Gas • Cho, Lazarian, & Vishniac 2002, Ap. J, 564, 291, ‘Simulations of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in a strongly magnetized medium’ • Yan & Lazarian 2003, Ap. J, 592, L 33, ‘Grain acceleration by magnetohydrodynamic turbulence: Gyroresonance mechanism’ • Cho, Lazarian, & Vishniac 2003, Ap. J, 595, 812, ‘Ordinary and viscousity-damped magnetohydrodynamic turbulence’ • Many papers are posted in astro-ph.
MHD Simulations of Turbulent Reconnection • In Yokoyama-san’s results, the reconnection rate is not enhanced. • They are same with Tanuma’s results. • Much more simulation grids would be required.
Particle Acceleration in Analytic Reconnection Current Sheet • Craig & Henton’s analytic solution(Craig & Henton 1995, Ap. J, 450, 280) • Hirose, Litvinenko, Shibata, Tanuma et al. (2003): MHD simulations of stability. • Heerikhuisen, Litvinenko, & Craig (2002), Ap. J, 566, 512, ‘Proton acceleration in analytic reconnecting current sheets’: Test particle in Craig & Henton solution • Takasaki, Asai, et al. : Test particle in Craig & Henton solution
Craig & Henton(1995)’s Solution
Numerical Test of Stability • Hirose, Litvinenko, Shibata, Tanuma et al. (2003) examine stability of Craig & Henton solution by performing MHD simulations. • It is revealed that Craig & Henton solution is unstable to tearing instability or Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in some cases.
Particle Acceleration in Analytic Solution • Heerikhuisen, Litvinenko, & Craig (2002), Ap. J, 566, 512, ‘Proton acceleration in analytic reconnecting current sheets’: Test particle in Craig & Henton solution
Trajectories of Test particles
Spectrum of Test Particles
Particle Acceleration in Turbulence • Dmitruk, Matthaeus, Seenu, & Brown 2002, Ap. J, 597, L 81, ‘Test particle acceleration in three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence’
MHD Equations
Simulations • Mach number is 0. 25. • Specific heat ratioγ=5/3 • The random fluctuation is assumed at 1<k<4. • R=Rm=1000 • Pseudospectral code (Ghosh, Hossain, & Matthaeus 1993) • The resolution is 256^3 Fourier modes.
Ohm’s law
Results • Turbulent |B| (upper) and |E| (lower). Yellow shows high, blue shows low. • The energy spectrum of the MHD fields (not shown in the paper) is consistent with a Kolmogorov 5/3 power law.
Nonrelativistic Equations of Motion • α=Ωi Ta relates the turbulent field scales with the particle motion scales. In general, α>>1: turbulent time scale is much slower than gyro frequency. In this paper, α=10^2, 10^3, 10^4, 10^5. • Ωi=qi B/ mi c is normalized gyro-frequency. • 50000 particles • Runge-Kutta 4 th order.
Trajectories • 100 test particles (out of 50000) • The color shows velocity.
Particle Energy Distribution -0. 6 -2
Emax and <E> v. s. α Emax <E> • • Emax=2αE||λ|| Solid line: This simulation Dotted line: Particle simulation Dashed line: Integration
Emax • Emax=2αE||λ||∝v. BL. • These results are consistent with Swarthmore Spheromak laboratory reconnection experiment (Brown et al. 2002, Ap. J, 577, L 63) and a wide range of space and astrophysical systems (Makishima 1999, Astron. Nachr. , 320, 1997 Proc. Of ASCA 4 th Meeting)
Particle Simulations • Tanuma et al. • Nishikawa et al. 2003 • To obtain spectrum. • Naito: Monte-Carlo simulations
Summary • Report of conferences • Turbulent reconnection • Particle acceleration • Particle simulations
