Current Sheets, Plasmoids and Flux Ropes in the Heliosphere Part II: Theoretical Aspects

O. Pezzi et al.

Summary: Our understanding of processes in the heliosphere began with reduced dimensionality models, but non-planar structures play a crucial role in explaining phenomena like particle acceleration and energy dissipation; This review focuses on the theoretical paradigms and differences between 2D and 3D views of current sheets, magnetic islands, and flux ropes; The complex nature of magnetic reconnection and particle acceleration in a turbulent environment is highlighted through numerical simulations and in-situ observations.
