Finite-time singularity formation at a magnetic neutral line in Hall magnetohydrodynamics
(Elsevier Ltd, 2015)The formation of a current sheet in a weakly collisional plasma can be modelled as a finite-time singularity solution of magnetohydrodynamic equations. We use an exact self-similar solution to confirm and generalise a ... -
Hall MHD and electron inertia effects in current sheet formation at a magnetic neutral line
(Cambridge Journals, 2015)An exact self-similar solution is used to investigate current sheet formation at a magnetic neutral line in incompressible Hall magnetohydrodynamics. The collapse to a current sheet is modelled as a finite-time singularity ...
