A flare and a helical jet, requiring a spine-and-fan 3D reconnection scenario (note the circular polarity-inversion line PIL) within which flare ribbons form even without an appeal to CSHKP. Note also the two regions of reconnection needed. A nice feature of this cartoon is the indication of a finite volume around the outer spine. How is this related to a possible HFT? If this is confusing, please see the simulation results in the paper itself, which have nice, thick, well-colored "field lines",
