The Role of Resistivity on the Efficiency of Magnetic Reconnection in MHD
Using a resistive MagnetoHydroDynamic (MHD) simulation, we study how the magnitude and shape of diffusion influence magnetic reconnection. Specifically, we investigate how and why the reconnection rate is influenced by variations in the diffusion distribution and magnitude. By running multiple MHD s...
