Global Hybrid Versus MHD Modeling of the Magnetosphere: Density and Magnetic Field (1996)
1996 · Short film
Synopsis
This series of animations compares a two-dimensional global hybrid simulation with an magnetohydrodynamic model of the interaction of the solar wind with the Earth's magnetosphere. Note: Magnetic field lines superimposed over density are compared for a 2D global hybrid simulation and a magnetohydrodynamic model of the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction. Animator: Liam Krauss (Hughes STX), Andy Acuna (Hughes STX). Scientist: Steve Zalesak (NASA/GSFC), Dan Spicer (NASA/GSFC), F. Kazeminezhad (University of Maryland), S. Curtis (NASA/GSFC), D. Papadopoulos (University of Maryland), J. Huba (NRL).
