Parallel, Adaptive-Mesh-Refinement MHD for Global Space-Weather Simulations
The first part of this paper reviews some issues representing major computational challenges for global MHD models of the space environment. These issues include mathematical formulation and discretization of the governing equations that ensure the proper jump conditions and propagation speeds, regions of relativistic Alfvén speed, and controlling the divergence of the magnetic field. The secon...
متن کاملResolution Dependence in Modeling Extreme Weather Events
At Argonne National Laboratory we have developed a high performance regional climate modeling simulation capability based on the NCAR MM5v3.4. The regional climate simulation system at Argonne currently includes a Java-based interface to allow rapid selection and generation of initial and boundary conditions, a high-performance version of MM5v3.4 modified for long climate simulations on our 512...
متن کاملThree-dimensional MHD simulations of Ganymede’s magnetosphere
[1] Ganymede is unique among planetary moons because it has its own magnetic field strong enough to form a magnetosphere within Jupiter’s magnetospheric environment. Here we report on our three-dimensional global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations that model the interaction between Ganymede’s magnetosphere and the corotating Jovian plasma. We use the measured field and particle properties to...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Mhd Simulations of Radiatively Inefficient Accretion Flows
We present three-dimensional MHD simulations of rotating radiatively inefficient accretion flows onto black holes. We continuously inject magnetized matter into the computational domain near the outer boundary and run the calculations long enough for the resulting accretion flow to reach a quasi-steady state. We have studied two limiting cases for the geometry of the injected magnetic field: pu...
متن کاملHalloween Storm Simulations with the Space Weather Modeling Framework
In late October and early November 2003 a series of some of the most powerful solar eruptions ever registered shook the heliosphere. These “Halloween storms” damaged 28 satellites, knocking two out of commission, diverted airplane routes and caused power failures in Sweden, among other problems. Long-distance radio communications were disrupted because of the effects on the ionosphere, and nort...
