3-D Driven Reconnection Experiment with Particle Motion

我们首次明确了(1)三维局部重联及其对快速重联的影响，(2)电流片的异常电阻率及其对异常离子加热的影响，(3)重联区域的快速冲击形成，(4)等离子体/电流片喷射的快速重联。在普林斯顿小组的帮助下，TS-3/4实验室实验揭示了大的驱动力将二维对称重联转变为三维局域重联，并加速重联。长时间MRX实验研究了异常电阻率的机理，与TS-3实验结果吻合较好。TC-3D还可以与外部环面场进行多种三维重连。最后，我们在东京大学举办了2000年东京大学空间磁重联和实验室等离子体研讨会，这是四个重联研究小组：实验室、太阳、磁层和理论/模拟之间的第一次研讨会。我们首次就重联、等离子体喷射和三维重联的异常电阻率/加热机制和原因达成一致。

We made clear for the first time (1) 3-D localized reconnection and its effect on fast reconnection, (2) anomalous resistivity of current sheet and its effect on anomalous ion heating, (3) fast shock formation in reconnection region and (4) fast reconnection by plasmoid / current sheet ejection. The TS-3/4 laboratory experiment revealed by the help of Princeton group that the large driven force transformed 2-D symmetric reconnection to 3-D localized one together with the acceleration of reconnection. The MRX experiment with long duration time studied the mechanisms of anomalous resistivity in good agreement with the TS-3 experiment. The TC-3D also made clear a variety of 3-D reconnections with the external toroidal field. Finally, we held University of Tokyo Symposium 2000 on Magnetic Reconnection in Space and Laboratory Plasmas at the university of Tokyo: the first symposium between major four reconnection research groups: laboratory, solar, magnetosphere and theory/simulation. We agreed for the first - time the mechanisms and causes of anomalous resistivity / heating of reconnection, plasmoid ejection and 3-D reconnection.
