Exact Solution of Jump Relations at Discontinuities in a Two-And-Half-Dimensional Compressible Reconnection Model

Two-and-half-dimensional reconnection is examined for a compressible plasma: Exact solution of jump relations in the system of discontinuities is used to investigate how the outflowing jet and the conditions in the intermediate region depend on the characteristics of the inflow. The most significant implications concerning large-scale eruptive phenomena of solar atmosphere are presented.
