ISS Space Plasma Laboratory: An ISS instrument package for investigating the opening/closing of solar and heliospheric magnetic fields

Abstract: We describe a proposed laboratory-experiment research program that will answer the fundamental question: What is the role of reconnection in opening and closing the solar magnetic field? While attacking this question, we will also address the most important, longstanding questions on magnetic reconnection, in all contexts: What determines the rate of reconnection, and whether or not it is bursty? How is the released energy partitioned between thermal, kinetic, and particle? Of course, it seems completely contr… Show more
