Scientific paper

We use MDI magnetic field observations and the theory of reconnection through a separator to constrain a numerical simulation of an X-ray bright point observed in EUV by TRACE. A gasdynamic model is employed to describe the corona and transition region in the bright point loop. Nonlocal effects such as opacity and ambipolar diffusion are important to the transition region; these effects are approximated locally by modification of the radiative loss and thermal conduction. A straightforward comparison of measured light curves versus those generated by the simulation shows that the reconnection model is unable to account for the observations.
