Notes. Summary of the configuration of null-points in the λi = 0.072 simulations, broken down into phases which display similar properties. In each phase, the number of nulls in the system and their type are given, along with the central null type, the time over which the phase occurs and the orientation of any local current sheets (/ infers a current sheet oriented along the line y = x, and \ along the line y = −x). (NB. ∗ denotes that the current sheet orientation alternates periodically via oscillatory reconnection.)
