- Results from an implicit particle-in-cell simulation (IPIC3D) of the energy fluxes from magnetic reconnection in Earth's magnetotail. The results consist of six files in HDF5 format that contain the electric field, magnetic field, the density, velocity and energy flux. Each file contains one time step. The IPIC3D simulation is described in Markidis, S., Lapenta, G. and Rizwan-uddin (2010) Multi-scale simulations of plasma with IPIC3D . Mathematics and Computers and Simulation, 80, 1509-1519. The energy conserving version of IPIC3D used in this study is described in Lapenta, G., (2017) Exactly energy conserving semi-implicit particle in cell formulation, J. Computational Physics, 334, 349-366. The application of IPIC3D to Earth's magnetosphere is described in Walker, R., Lapenta, G., Berchem, J., El-Alaoui, M., and Schriver, D., (2019) Embedding particle-in-cell simulations in global magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the magnetosphere, Journal of Plasma Physics, 85(1).
