Magnetic field merging in the solar wind

Abstract

Magnetic field merging in the solar wind is discussed in terms of steady-state merging, which involves a steady flow field, and of spontaneous merging, which involves an instability such as the tearing instability. Spontaneous merging is found to be more effective than steady-state merging.
