Magnetic reconnection in strongly magnetized astrophysical plasma environments is believed to be the primary process for fast energy release and particle energization. Currently there is strong interest in relativistic magnetic reconnection, in that it may provide a new explanation for high-energy particle acceleration and radiation in strongly magnetized astrophysical systems. We review recent advances in particle acceleration and reconnection physics in the magnetically-dominated regime. More discussion is focused on the physics of particle acceleration, power-law formation as well as the reconnection rate problem. In addition, we provide an outlook for studying reconnection acceleration mechanisms and kinetic physics in the next step.

  1. Particle Injection Problem in Magnetic Reconnection and Turbulence

    physics.plasm-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    A review of the particle injection problem in magnetic reconnection and turbulence, arguing that injection is set by direct acceleration, Fermi kicks, and pickup processes, not by E>B diffusion regions.
