Magnetic field line reconnection in collisionless fluid plasma regimes is discussed with the aim of understanding the role of conserved topological quantities in the nonlinear development of the reconnection instability, the role of the guide field in the transition from the Alfvenic regime to the whistler regime and the onset of secondary instabilities.

Abstract
Magnetic field line reconnection in collisionless fluid plasma regimes is discussed with the aim of understanding the role of conserved topological quantities in the nonlinear development of the reconnection instability, the role of the guide field in the transition from the Alfvenic regime to the whistler regime and the onset of secondary instabilities.File in questo prodotto:
