Scientific paper

We examine the relationship between the acceleration of the flux rope and the thermal energy release rate in a loss-of-equilibrium model of coronal mass ejections. We find that the correlation between thermal energy release rate and flux rope acceleration is good for cases where the background magnetic field is high and the reconnection rate is fast, but that the correlation is poor for cases with low background magnetic fields and slow reconnection rates. Thus, though reconnection plays an important role in both the acceleration of the flux rope and the thermal energy release rate, it does not always affect these quantities in the same way.
