Abstract
The subtle interactions between the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and tra nsverse plasmons are investigated. It is shown that there is a resisti ve instability by the plasmon's soliton in a current sheet, which even tually turns into an eruptive instability at the magnetic field reconn ection. In the case of ion-acoustic turbulence, the high temperature c urrent sheet model must adopt the aromalous conductivity instead of th e Coulomb conductivity. The numerical results are consistent with the observations obtained by Hanaoka (1994), Thus the Rare caused by X-ray loop coalescence can be basically interpreted by this model of magnet ic field reconnection driven by ponderomotive force.
