Magnetic Reconnection in Space, Laboratory and Astrophysical Plasmass — •Jörg Büchner — Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Technical University Berlin — Max-Planck-Institute for Solar System Research Göttingen
Reconnection is a phenomenon of magnetic energy release processes, often explosive, in space - , laboratory - and astrophysical plasmas. Conjectured in the 1940ties for the Sun, with first theoretical descriptions in the 1950ties, it has been found to take place starting from small, plasma scales to the large scales typical for astrophysical phenomena. We discuss the current state of understanding reconnection including latest results about its relationship with plasma turbulence and structure formation processes.
