In this paper, results of 2.5-dimensional magnetohydrodynamical simulations are reported for the magnetic reconnection of non-perfectly antiparallel magnetic fields. The magnetic field has a component perpendicular to the computational plane, that is, guide field. The angle theta between magnetic field lines in two half regions is a key parameter in our simulations whereas the initial distribution of the plasma is assumed to be simple; density and pressure are uniform except for the current sheet region. Alfven waves are generated at the reconnection point and propagate along the reconnected field line. The energy fluxes of the Alfven waves and magneto-acoustic waves (slow mode and fast mode) generated by the magnetic reconnection are measured. Each flux shows the similar time evolution independent of theta. The percentage of the energies (time integral of energy fluxes) carried by the Alfven waves and magneto-acoustic waves to the released magnetic energy are calculated. The Alfven waves carry 38.9%, 36.0%, and 29.5% of the released magnetic energy at the maximum (theta=80^circ) in the case of beta=0.1, 1, and 20 respectively, where beta is the plasma beta (the ratio of gas pressure to magnetic pressure). The magneto-acoustic waves carry 16.2% (theta=70^circ), 25.9% (theta=60^circ), and 75.0% (theta=180^circ) of the energy at the maximum. Implications of these results for solar coronal heating and acceleration of high-speed solar wind are discussed.
A new method for the determination of the Alfven wave energy generated during magnetic reconnection is introduced and used to analyze the results from two-dimensional MHD simulations. It is found that the regions with strong Alfven wave perturbations
We investigate physical scaling laws for magnetic energy dissipation in solar flares, in the framework of the Sweet-Parker model and the Petschek model. We find that the total dissipated magnetic energy $E_{diss}$ in a flare depends on the mean magne

Previous numerical studies have identified phase mixing of low-frequency Alfven waves as a mean of parallel electric field amplification and acceleration of electrons in a collisionless plasma. Theoretical explanations are given of how this produces
Line-driven stellar winds from massive (OB) stars are subject to a strong line-deshadowing instability. Recently, spectropolarimetric surveys have collected ample evidence that a subset of Galactic massive stars hosts strong surface magnetic fields.
