Magnetic reconnection in laser-produced magnetized plasma is investigated byusing optical diagnostics. The magnetic field is generated via Biermann batteryeffect, and the inversely directed magnetic field lines interact with eachother. It is shown by self-emission measurement that two colliding plasmasstagnate on a mid-plane forming two planar dense regions, and that theyinteract later in time. Laser Thomson scattering spectra are distorted in thedirection of the self-generated magnetic field, indicating asymmetric ionvelocity distribution and plasma acceleration. In addition, the spectraperpendicular to the magnetic field show different peak intensity, suggestingan electron current formation. These results are interpreted as magnetic fielddissipation, reconnection, and outflow acceleration. Two-directional laserThomson scattering is, as discussed here, a powerful tool for the investigationof microphysics in the reconnection region.
