Scientific paper

Analytic calculations and simulations of the steady-state structure of the dissipation region during collisionless reconnection are described. Ions are treated as particles and electrons as a dissipative fluid. A limiting reconnection rate results as the ions 'blowout' the magnetic field in the dissipation area. The implications for comprehending substorm dynamics are discussed.
