Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena in Heliophysics and BeyondMagnetic reconnection underlies many explosive phenomena in the heliosphere and in
laboratory plasmas. New research capabilities in theory/simulations, observations, and laboratory experiments provide the opportunity to solve the grand scientific challenges summarized in this white paper. Success will require enhanced and sustained investments from relevant funding agencies, increased interagency/international partnerships, and close collaborations among the
heliophysics, astrophysics, and laboratory plasma communities. These investments will deliver transformative progress in understanding magnetic reconnection and related explosive phenomena including space weather events.
