摘要
Collisionless magnetic reconnection in regimes where the mode structure is characterized by global convection cells is found to exhibit a quasiexplosive time behavior in the early nonlinear stage where the fluid displacement is smaller than the equilibrium scale length. This process is accompanied by the formation of a current density sublayer narrower than the skin depth. This sublayer keeps shrinking with time.
