Description

We performed magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of a giant arcade formation with a model of magnetic reconnection coupled with heat conduction, to investigate the dynamical structure of slow and fast MHD shocks associated with reconnection. Based on the numerical results, theoretical soft X-ray images were calculated and compared with the Yohkoh soft X-ray observations of a giant arcade on 1992 January 24. The Y-shaped structure observed in the event was identified to correspond to the slow and fast shocks associated with the magnetic reconnection.
