Mercury's magnetosphere with turbulent solar wind conditions using the Menura solver

Description of the datasetThis archive contains output from a 3-D hybrid particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation (kinetic ions, fluid electrons) performed with the Menura code, modelling Mercury’s magnetosheath. used in the associated research article.All files are stored in NumPy (.npy) format and can be loaded directly using numpy.load() in Python. File contents beta.npy → Plasma betadens.npy → Ion number density (normalised to sw value)Ppar.npy → Parallel ion pressure (normalised to sw value)Pper.npy → Perpendicular ion pressure (normalised to sw value)B.npy → Magnetic field vector magnitude (normalised to sw value)x.npy, y.npy, z.npy → Spatial coordinates of the simulation gridparameters.txt → Text file containing simulation parameters and setup Notes: All arrays share the same grid dimensions Nx, Ny,Nz. How to read the data (Python example) import numpy as np dens = np.load("dens.npy")B = np.load("B.npy")x = np.load("x.npy")y = np.load("y.npy")z = np.load("z.npy") Parameters and metadataThe file parameters.txt contains the full simulation configuration (solar wind parameters, magnetic field, grid resolution, timestep, boundary conditions, etc.).This file can also be parsed automatically using the analysis scripts available in the GitLab repository: https://gitlab.com/menura_plasma/menura Simulation notes Code: Menura (hybrid PIC) Target: Mercury’s magnetosphere Solar wind configuration: turbulent Software Simulation code: Menura Menura Guide: https://menura.readthedocs.io/
