A comparison of methods for finding magnetic nulls in simulations and in situ observations of space plasmas

Vyacheslav Olshevsky, David Pontin, Benjamin Williams +5

Magnetic nulls are ubiquitous in space plasmas, and are of interest as sites of localized energy dissipation or magnetic reconnection. As such, a number of methods have been propos…
