<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>We report a quasi-periodic pulsation (QPP) event simultaneously detected from the spatial displacements of the coronal loop at both EUV images and microwave emission during the preflare phase of a C1.1 flare on 2016 March 23. Using the motion magnification technique, a low-amplitude transverse oscillation with the growing period is discovered in a diffuse coronal loop in Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) image sequences at wavelength of 171 Å, and the initial oscillation period is estimated to be ∼397 s with a slow growth rate of 0.045. At the same time, a QPP with growing periods from roughly 300 s to nearly 500 s is discovered in the microwave flux in the same active region. Based on the imaging observations measured at EUV wavelengths by the AIA and at microwave 17 GHz by Nobeyama Radioheliograph, the diffuse coronal loop and the microwave radiation source are found to be connected through a hot loop seen in AIA images at wavelength of 94 Å. The growing period of the QPP should be related to the modulation of LRC-circuit oscillating process in a current-carrying plasma loop. The existence of electric currents may imply the non-potentialities in the source region during the preflare phase.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Flux transfer events (FTEs) are magnetic flux ropes that are produced via magnetic reconnection at the planetary magnetopause where the solar wind directly interacts with the magnetosphere. Previous observations show that FTEs with a duration of several seconds, corresponding to a spatial scale of ∼0.5–1 <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> <jats:sub>M</jats:sub>, can occur at Mercury. However, the formation of these macroscale FTEs at a small dimensional magnetopause with a radius of ∼1.5 <jats:italic>R</jats:italic> <jats:sub>M</jats:sub> remains unclear. Here, we report the observations of active magnetic reconnection events at Mercury’s magnetopause by the MESSENGER spacecraft. The reconnection process is dominated by the formation of a series of multi-scale FTEs. Ion-scale flux ropes, typically with durations of ∼1 s or less, may be produced by the tearing instability in the thin current sheet near the subsolar position. Moreover, the commonly observed macroscale FTEs consist of three to tens of successive small-scale FTEs. We propose that macroscale FTEs at Mercury are generated by the interaction and merging of multiple ion-scale flux ropes, probably through two or more steps. This is distinct from the formation of typical FTEs, mainly between a pair of X-lines, at Earth’s magnetopause. Thus, the formation and evolution of FTEs may differ among planetary magnetospheres with a vast range of scale sizes. We further conclude that Mercury’s magnetopause is a natural plasma laboratory to study flux rope dynamics and evolution for the upcoming Bepi-Colombo mission.</jats:p>
