3D Kinetic Simulations of Driven Reconnection in Merging Flux Tubes
3D kinetic simulations find that merging Lundquist flux tubes produce delayed reconnection onset in 3D, a normalized reconnection rate of 0.08-0.10, and nonthermal particle spectra with power-law index 1.6-2.0 and cutoff gamma_cut/sigma_in approximately 50.
