Scientific paper

The reconnection of magnetic field lines in the neutral plasma sheet has been studied in the light of momentum conservation and charge neutrality. The effect of field variations and plasma conductivity on the charged particle dynamics has been studied. It is found that the charged particles emerging out of the neutral plasma sheet are energized. It is argued that the reconnection process would make the plasma sheet unstable. The onset of likely instabilities in the neutral plasma sheet and their geophysical implication has been briefly outlined.
