  • 1. Dipartimento di Fisica, Università di Trieste, Via Valerio 2, I-34127 Trieste (Italy)

Description

Here, we show how a readily available and free scientific visualization program—ParaView—can be used to display electric fields in interesting situations. We give a few examples and specify the individual steps that lead to highly educational representations of the fields. (paper)
