Computer Simulation of Magnetosphere: Programs and Examples





This CD-ROM contains the fundamental three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation programs and graphics software to study interaction between the solar wind and the earth's magnetosphere. They are composed from (1) Fundamental 3D MHD codes and Graphics software for Simulation School, (2) General 3D MHD codes and Graphics software for Vector and Parallel computers, (3) New 3D MHD codes by using the domain decomposition method for the scalar-parallel supercomputer. The MHD programs and graphics software are written by Fortran, and complete programs and their explanations are presented in this CD-ROM.
Interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetosphere has been studied by using a 3-dimensional global MHD model.
