In the paper Barta et al. (ApJ 737, 2011) the authors study spontaneous fragmentation of the current sheet and energy cascades in magnetic reconnection. In this paper we applied aforementioned theory to solar flares and we related predicted quantities of the model with observations. It was shown that the mechanism of cascading reconnection can account for observed characteristics of solar flares (organized large-scale dynamics & signatures of fragmented energy release).
