Caption: Figure 4.
The reconnection and field-aligned flows in the MFR at t = 17.84 hr. The y-direction flows are displayed on the vertical slice. We show the magnetic field lines going through the regions of field-aligned flows in panels (a) and (b), source regions of the reconnection flows in panels (c) and (d), and the hot core in panels (c) and (d). The magnetic field lines are colored by the y-direction velocity and the bottom slice is colored by the radial magnetic field.
