Simulation output from "Multiscale MHD-Kinetic PIC Study of Energy Flux Caused by Reconnection"

<p>Results from an implicit particle-in-cell simulation (IPIC3D)&nbsp;of the energy fluxes from magnetic reconnection in Earth&#39;s magnetotail. The results consist of six files in HDF5 format that contain&nbsp;the electric field, magnetic field, the density, velocity and energy flux. Each file contains one time step.&nbsp;</p> <p>The IPIC3D simulation is described in</p> <p>Markidis, S., Lapenta, G.&nbsp; and Rizwan-uddin (2010) Multi-scale simulations of plasma with IPIC3D .
