Steady and unsteady visco-resistive reconnection in the presence of the Hall effect
(The University of Waikato, 2021)In this thesis we investigate the effects of viscosity and the Hall effect on magnetic reconnection. Magnetic reconnection is a process of releasing large amounts of magnetic energy as observed in solar flares. In the first ... -
Topics in Energy Release and Particle Acceleration in the Heliosphere
(University of Waikato, 2014)This thesis investigates both the release of energy in solar flares, and the acceleration and transport of particles in various astrophysical situations. While numerical simulations are central to this thesis, these are ...
