Three dimensional distribution of the plasma temperature 

in the whole earth's magnetosphere drawn by the multiple pixel images



The VRML file, which shows the three dimensional distribution of the plasma temperature
in the whole earth's magnetosphere with dawn-dusk asymmetry by the multiple pixel 
images, is made by the three-dimensional MHD simulation data. 
It is executed by main program: zvrmpxa.f and subroutine package: zvrsuba.f.

Input variable:
  tra : Transparency of pixel image 
       (0.0 ~ 0.5 : 0.0 means 100% Transparency,0.5 means 50% Transparency)
  ipn : Number of planes 
  icc : Direction of planes (1 : zx plane, 2 : yz plane, 3 : xy plane)

Main using subroutine ( refer to 3-1 ):
  pixel1(nx,ny,xb,yb,xl,yl,ipx0,ico,icc,zcc,vmin,vmax,tra,u)

Drawing example: 
This example shows how to draw the plasma temperature distribution of 
the earth's magnetosphere from the result of three-dimensional MHD simulation. 
It is drawn with multiple pixel planes by using transparent method.
