Sparking Dynamic, Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection in a Twisted Flux Tube
A local disturbance sparks reconnection in a twisted magnetic flux tube, generating intermittent currents and plasma heating. Led by CITA graduate student Michael Grehan.

🎉Congrats Michael Grehan🎉 (CITA) -- student-led study submitted on magnetic reconnection through many different special relativistic plasma regimes!
We have been exploring how different relativistic models of reconnection differ from one another... they end up being very similar, in many aspects! Congrats to Michael on leading this very comprehensive study on reconnection!
