A Note on the Dipole Coordinates

Akira Kageyama, Tooru Sugiyama, Kunihiko Watanabe +1

A couple of orthogonal coordinates for dipole geometry are proposed for numerical simulations of plasma geophysics in the Earth's dipole magnetic field. These coordinates have prop…

The "Yin-Yang Grid": An Overset Grid in Spherical Geometry

Akira Kageyama, Tetsuya Sato

A new kind of overset grid, named Yin-Yang grid, for spherical geometry is proposed. The Yin-Yang grid is composed of two identical component grids that are combined in a complemen…

Relaxed States of a Magnetized Plasma with Minimum Dissipation

B. Dasgupta, P. Dasgupta, M. S. Janaki +2

Relaxed States of a slightly resistive and turbulent magnetized plasma is obtained by invoking the principle of minimum dissipation which leads to curl curl curl B = λB . A solutio…
