Review of simulation of quasiparallel collisionless shocks

Creators

Description

Progress in the numerical simulation of quasiparallel shocks is reviewed. Recent work on one-dimensional hybrid codes (fluid electrons, particle ions) and two-dimensional particle codes is emphasized. Basic goals and limitations of the various models are stated throughout the text
