A case study on the origin of near-Earth plasma

Summary of data files. This is the dataset for a paper "A case study on the origin of near-Earth Plasma" submitted to JGR-space by Glocer et al The paper conducts multifluid MHD simulations of the magnetosphere by the BATSRUS code, with solar wind input, ionospheric outflow by the PWOM code, and ionospheric potential solver, and inner magnetospehre by the CIMI code. Solutions with and without plasmasphere are considered. All plots in the paper are made with spacepy (specific fork: https://github.com/aglocer/spacepy) or with tecplot The data is organized as follows Top directory: imf.dat: Has the solar wind input as a simple time series. Can be read and plotted with the "ImfInput" tool in spacepy tared Directories with "PS" and "noPS" tags have simulation output with and without plasmasphere. Each has three subdirectories described as follows: GM: Has the "Global Magnetosphere" output from BATSRUS for the images shown. y=0*out are cuts in the y=0 GSM plane and the *log file is the log output containing Dst. Both can be plotted with spacepy pybats. The 3d files are used in a few images and are tecplot binary files and read and plotted with tecplot. PW: Has the "Polar Wind" output from the PWOM code for images shown. The *out files are time dependent binary output for each field line. They can be read and plotted with the pybats.pwom tool in spacepy. North and South indicte northern and southern hemisphere respectively IE: Has the "Ionosphere Electrodynamics" output from the potential solver for plots shown. the *log files have the CPCP data as a function of time. They can be read and plotted with pybats in spacepy IM: Has the "Inner Magnetosphere" output from the CIMI code. The CIMIeq.out file has time dependent snapshots of the solution on the min B surface for plots shown. The *log files have the total energy as a function of time for each species (among other variables). Both files are read and plotted with pybats and pybats.cimi code in spacepy
