In a relativistic plasma regime magnetic reconnection may take completely different features due to the relativistic limit on the particle velocity under conditions of quasi-neutrality. Configurations can be realized when the spatial variation of the magnetic field cannot be balanced by the electron current in Ampere's law. In this case the standard MHD description fails and the magnetic field dynamics is dominated by the displacement current and by the corresponding inductive electric field. These conditions correspond to the dynamic dissipation regime, first proposed by S.I. Syrovatskii nearly 60 years ago in the context of Cosmic physics, and may provide an efficient, time variable acceleration mechanism in a relativistic inhomogeneous plasma. J. Gu, F. Pegoraro, P.V.
