Abstract

2-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation data for a paper "Fully kinetic simulations of magnetic reconnection in the Earth’s quasi-parallel bow shock"

Data for fig.1(a): by1250-fig1a.txt, by1563-fig1a.txt, by1875-fig1a.txt, format: x/d_i, B_y/B_0. For fig.1(b)(c)(d): az1250.txt, az1563.txt, az1875.txt, format: x/d_i, y/d_i, A_z/(B_0d_i). For fig1(e)(f)(g)(h)(i)(j): ex1875.txt, cuz1875.txt, bz1875.txt, ne1875.txt, vxe1875.txt, vye1875.txt, format: x/d_i, y/d_i, Q, where Q is each normalized field quantity (E_x, J_z, B_z, N_e, V_ex, V_ey). Normalization is given in the figure. Data for fig.2(a) for J_z, fig.2(b) for B_z, fig.2(d) for V_ex, fig.2(e) for V_ey are the same as given in fig1. For fig.2(c): cde1875.txt. For fig.2(g)(h): vxi1875.txt, vyi1875.txt. For contour of A_z for each plot, use az1875.txt. For vector plot of fluid velocities, use vxe1875.txt, vye1875.txt, vxi1875.txt, vyi1875.txt. For fig.2(f)(i): az1888.txt, az1900.txt. Format is the same as other 2-D plots. Data for fig.3(a), use ne1875.txt. For fig.3(b): ez1875.txt. For vector plot of fluid velocities, use vxe1875.txt, vye1875.txt. For vector plot of E-field: exav1875.txt, eyav1875.txt. Format is the same as other 2-D plots. For contour of A_z for each plot, use az1875.txt. For fig.3(c)(d)(e): bjc#.txt, ejc#.txt, cujc#.txt, vjec#.txt, vjic#.txt, nec#.txt, cdec#.txt, where the letter j represents a component of the field (x, y, z), and # represents a number (1, 2, or 3), format: y/d_i, Q. For fig.3(f)(g)(h)(i): fj-fig3-?#.txt, where the letter j represents e (electron) or i (ion), ? represents a figure alphabet (f, g, h, or i), and # represents a number 1 (left panel) or 2 (right panel), format: v_k/v_A, v_l/v_A, count, where v_k is the x axis of the velocity and v_l is the y axis of the velocity. Data for fig.4(a): vyi1797.txt, az1797.txt, the same format as other 2-D plots. For fig.4(b), use vyi1875.txt and az1875.txt. For fig.4(c)(d), use vyi1875.txt, vye1875.txt, for A_z contour az1875.txt, and for velocity vectors, also use vxi1875.txt and vxe1875.txt. For fig.4(e), viin-x1875.txt, for velocity vector: vxi-x1875.txt, vyi-x1875.txt, and use az1875.txt for A_z contour. For fig.4(f), vein-x1875.txt, for velocity vector: vxe-x1875.txt, vye-x1875.txt, and use az1875.txt for A_z contour. For fig.4(g)(h): bjc#.txt, ejc#.txt, cujc#.txt, vjec#.txt, vjic#.txt, nec#.txt, cdec#.txt, where the letter j represents a component of the field (x, y, z), and # represents a number (4 or 5), format: x/d_i, Q. For fig.4(i), viinc4.txt, viinc5.txt, format x/d_i, |v_i-xy|/v_A. For fig.4(j), veinc4.txt, veinc5.txt, format x/d_i, |v_e-xy|/v_A. For fig4.(k): fj-fig4-k#.txt, where the letter j represents e or i, and # represents a number 1 (top panel), 2 (middle panel), or 3 (bottom panel), format: v_k/v_A, v_l/v_A, count, where v_k is the x axis of the velocity and v_l is the y axis of the velocity.
