XFTRISTAN: A program to visualize the interaction between solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere

XFTRISTAN is a graphical user interface (GUI) for the tridimensional particle in cell (PIC) code called TRISTAN. The TRISTAN code has been widely used to investigate the kinetic nature of space plasma processes applied to problems ranging from solar wind–earth interaction to magnetic reconnection to...

Este código ha sido ampliamente usado para investigar la naturaleza cinética de los procesos de plasmas espaciales que van desde aplicaciones relacionadas con la interacción de viento solar con la tierra hasta la topología de la reconexión magnética. La primera versión del XFTRISTAN provee un camino fácil para la introducción de parámetros de entrada, visualizaciones de campos y partículas, varias herramientas de diagnóstico y generación automática de imágenes.
