Temperature Contours and Ghost-Surfaces for Chaotic Magnetic Fields

Creators

Description

Steady state solutions for anisotropic heat transport in a chaotic magnetic field are determined numerically and compared to a set of 'ghost-surfaces', surfaces constructed via an action-gradient flow between the minimax and minimizing periodic orbits. The ghost-surfaces are in remarkable agreement with the temperature contours.
