Researchers have observed a magnetic reconnection driven by electron dynamics in laser-produced plasmas. Magnetic reconnections are often observed in the magnetic flux on the Sun and the Earth's magnetosphere. It has been highly challenging to reveal the electron scale, microscopic information in the vast universe. Applying a weak magnetic field, where only electrons are directly coupled with the magnetic field, we observed a plasmoid and cusp-like features typical to magnetic reconnections.
