| Zusammenfassung |
| Astrophysical fluids are generally turbulent and this preexisting turbulence
must be taken into account for models of magnetic reconnection in astrophysical, solar or heliospheric environments.
In addition, reconnection itself induces turbulence which provides an important
feedback on the reconnection process. In this paper we discuss both the theoretical
model and numerical evidence that magnetic reconnection becomes fast in the
approximation of resistive MHD. We consider the relation between the Lazarian and Vishniac turbulent reconnection theory and Lapenta's numerical experiments
testifying of the spontaneous onset of turbulent reconnection in systems which are
initially laminar. |
