During magnetically dominated relativistic reconnection, inflowing plasmadepletes the initial relativistic pressure at the x-line and collisionlessplasma heating inside the diffusion region is insufficient to overcome thisloss. The resulting pressure drop causes a collapse at the x-line, essentiallya localization mechanism of the diffusion region necessary for fastreconnection. The extension of this low-pressure region further explains thebursty nature of anti-parallel reconnection because a once opened outflowexhaust can also collapse, which repeatedly triggers secondary tearing islands.However, a stable single x-line reconnection can be achieved when an externalguide field exists, since the reconnecting magnetic field component rotates outof the reconnection plane at outflows, providing additional magnetic pressureto sustain the opened exhausts.
