Two years on, have these magnetic reconnections been observed and validated?

I don’t quite understand what is meant by magnetic reconnection here. The animation shows changing and merging field lines, but these lines are merely contour lines, not physical lines. I imagine that as charges flow through these fields they may be forced to condense to a density where their own electromagnetic fields eventually become larger than external forces.
