The magnetic breakout model gives an elegant explanation for the onset of an eruptive solar flare, involving magnetic reconnection at a coronal null point which leads to the initially enclosed flux ‘breaking out’ to large distances. In this paper we take a topological approach to the study of the conditions required for this breakout phenomenon to occur. The evolution of a simple delta sunspot model, up to the point of breakout, is analysed through several sequences of potential and linear force-free quasi-static equilibria. We show that any new class of field lines, such as those connecting to large distances, must be created through a global topological bifurcation and derive rules to predict the topological reconfiguration due to various types of bifurcation.

AbstractWe construct a magnetic reconnection model for magnetar giant flare in the framework of solar flare/coronal mass ejection theory. As is the case with the solar flare, the explosive magnetic reconnection plays a crucial role in the energetics of the magnetar flare. A key physics controlling the energy transport in the system, on the other hand, is the radiative process unlike that in the solar flare. After the release of the magnetic energy via the magnetic reconnection, the radiative heat flux drives the baryonic evaporation. Our model can predict that the baryonic matter evaporated in the preflare stage would be the origin of the radio emitting ejecta observed in association with the giant flare on 2004 December 27 from SGR1806-20.

We find an important piece of evidence for magnetic reconnection inflow in a flare on March 18, 1999. The flare occurred on the north-east limb, displaying a nice cusp-shaped soft X-ray loop and a plasmoid ejection typical for the long-duration-events. As the plasmoid is ejected, magnetic reconnection occurs at the disconnecting point. A clear ingoing pattern toward the magnetic X-point is seen. The velocity of this apparent motion is about 5 km sec−1, which is an upper limit on reconnection inflow speed. Based on this observation, we derive the reconnection rate as MA = 0.001 − 0.03, where MA is a Alfvén Mach number of the inflow.
