Two‐dimensional Reconstruction of a Time‐dependent Mirror Structure from Double‐polytropic MHD Simulation

Abstract A new reconstruction method incorporated with pressure anisotropy parameter, α(B), has recently been developed for magnetohydrostatic equilibria and successfully applied to recovering a two‐dimensional (2‐D) magnetic field map of mirror structures observed in the Earth's magnetosheath....
