Structure of the magnetospheric flare. The color shows B_ϕ/r_⊥, and the white curve is the neutron star surface. The green curves show field lines that are connected to the star. The red curves represent baryon-loaded field lines that were ejected from the star, and the orange curves represent baryon-free field lines that reconnected around the ejecta. The dashed white line shows the location of the current sheet.
