2-D Unstructured Mesh Particle-MHD Solar Wind Flow Over the Earth: Magnetic Potential
This series of animations shows a two-dimensional unstructured mesh particle-magnetohydrodynamic solar wind flow simulation of the interaction of the solar wind with the Earth's magnetosphere.
Contour lines of the z-component of the magnetic potential for a 2D simulation of the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction
Video slate image reads "AZ Contour Lines".
