  An evolutionary process of the fast magnetic reconnection in ``free space''
which is free from any influence of outer circumstance has been studied
semi-analytically, and a self-similarly expanding solution has been obtained.
The semi-analytic solution is consistent with the results of our numerical
simulations performed in our previous paper (see Nitta et al. 2001). This
semi-analytic study confirms the existence of self-similar growth. On the other
hand, the numerical study by time dependent computer simulation clarifies the
stability of the self-similar growth with respect to any MHD mode. These
results confirm the stable self-similar evolution of the fast magnetic
reconnection system.
