Abstract
In the magnetohydrodynamic relaxation accompanying fast reconnections, magnetic fluctuations originating from kink-type instabilities yield a finite magnetic compression, and the corresponding transverse electric field is dissipated through transit-time damping. This dissipation mechanism does not change the helicity, while it dissipates the fluctuation energy to result in direct heating of ions. This is in contrast to a slow relaxation process based on the tearing mode turbulence, where the parallel electric field is predominantly dissipated, which accompanies preferential heating of electrons and dissipation of the helicity.
