Laser driven magnetic reconnection (LDMR) is constructed with self-
generated B fields
has been experimentally and theoretically studied extensively, where
more than
Mega-Gauss strong B fields are spontaneously generated in high-power
laser-plasma
interactions, which located on the target surface and produced by non-
parallel
temperature and density gradients of expanding...

Using direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional hydromagnetic
turbulence,
either with helical or non-helical forcing, we show that the ratio of
kinetic-to-magnetic energy dissipation always increases with the
magnetic Prandtl
number, i.e., the ratio of kinematic viscosity to magnetic diffusivity.
This
dependence can be approximated by a power law, but the exponent is
not...

We study different regimes of magnetic reconnection during formation
of bipolar structures using direct numerical simulations of the equations
of magnetohydrodynamics
with external random forcing and in the presence of gravity.
The domain is divided into two parts: a lower layer with the helical
forcing
and an upper layer with the non-helical forcing
with a smooth transition in...
