Reconnection-driven plasmoids in blazars: fast flares on a slow envelope (2012, background): “A richness of processes that take place on very different timescales have been revealed by these works (see, e.g., Aschwanden 2002).”
Explosive reconnection in magnetars (2003, background): “At later stages of reconnection various mechanisms of particle acceleration (DC electric fields, stochastic acceleration, shock acceleration) may be operational (e.g. Aschwanden 2002).”

An Observational Overview of Solar Flares (2011, background): “The following recent reviews of observations of flare and related phenomena, including theory, are also recommended for further reading: Priest & Forbes (2002); Aschwanden (2002); Benz (2008); Krucker et al. (2008a); Vršnak & Cliver (2008); Schrijver (2009).”
Hard X-ray emission from the solar corona (2008, background): “A range of different acceleration mechanisms has been proposed over the years (see Miller et al. 1997 for a review up to the mid-1990s and Aschwanden, 2002, for more recent developments).”
The Two Sources of Solar Energetic Particles (2012, background): “…and Mason 2006; Nitta et al. 2006), where reconnection between open and closed field lines takes place (e.g. Shibata, et al. 1992; Heyvaerts, Priest, Rust 1977; Shimojo and Shibata 2000; Aschwanden (2002); Reames 2002), accelerating electrons and ions that have direct acc ss to open field lines.”
Solar flares, coronal mass ejections and solar energetic particle event characteristics (2016, background): “…of their parent solar events with the underlying fundamental difference being the acceleration mechanisms: impulsive SEP events stem from resonant stochastic acceleration or magnetic reconnection (Aschwanden 2002), while gradual SEP events result from shock acceleration (Reames 2002).”
WEIBEL, TWO-STREAM, FILAMENTATION, OBLIQUE, BELL, BUNEMAN...WHICH ONE GROWS FASTER? (2009, background): “Indeed, analysis of soft and hard X-ray flare data indicate that plasma temperatures up to 40 MK are obtained in large flares (Aschwanden 2002).”
Kinetic Physics of the Solar Corona and Solar Wind (2006, background): “We cannot address the related physics issues here, but must refer the reader to the books of Benz (1993) and Aschwanden (2002), or the modern textbook of Aschwanden (2004) and the many references therein.”
Magnetic Reconnection in Astrophysical and (2009, background): “This corresponds to 1036–1038 particles and is comparable to the number of particles in a typical flare loop rather than at a single small reconnection site (Aschwanden 2002, Fletcher & Hudson 2008).”
ELECTRON ACCELERATION BY MULTI-ISLAND COALESCENCE (2010, background): “In order to explain observations, many theoretical ideas have been proposed (Aschwanden 2002, and references therein).”
Integrated Science Investigation of the Sun (ISIS): Design of the Energetic Particle Investigation (2016, background): “Various theoretical models (e.g., Aschwanden 2002; Petrosian et al. 2009; Kartavykh et al. 2008) are partially successful in accounting for some observed features in impulsive SEP events, but none has so far explained all of the key observations simultaneously.”
