Chihiro Tao Solar Wind Model Data at AMDA

These data sets are the simulation outputs of solar wind variations observed near the Earth and propagated to the different destinations using a 1-dimensional 2-component (radial & azimuthal) magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model.

The model code is based on the Coordinated Astronomical Numerical Software (CANS) by JST.

Model details, evaluations compared with observation data, and limitations are described in Tao et al. 2005, J. Geophys. Res., 110, A11208, doi:10.1029/2004JA010959

Solar wind propagation was calculated with several inputs : input_OMNI, input_Stereo-A, input_Stereo-B

Note an important parameter - ephemeris/dPhi - which could be considered as quality flag and presents an angle SOURCE(Earth,Stereo-A,Stereo-B)-SUN-TARGET(Mars,Jupiter,Saturn)
