Large‐scale energy budget of impulsive magnetic reconnection: Theory and simulation

We evaluate the large‐scale energy budget of magnetic reconnection utilizing an analytical time‐dependent impulsive reconnection model and a numerical 2‐D MHD simulation. With the generalization to compressible plasma, we can investigate changes in the thermal, kinetic, and magnetic energies. We stu...
