| Research Abstract |
The objective of this research is to study turbulent magnetic reconnection at high magnetic Reynolds numbers by using a direct magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) simulation. Therefore, brand new numerical techniques for MHD had been developed in order to perform highly accurate MHD simulations for a long time. These numerical techniques have enabled us to explore resistive magnetic reconnection at one of the highest magnetic Reynolds numbers ever. As a result of the simulations, a correlation was found out between the rapid increase of the reconnection rate and the bounce motion of a secondary plasmoid
