This folder contains data cubes from a Cartesian flux-emergence
simulation named "SD" (strong dipole), which was performed with 
the Lare3D code by Leake et al. (2013) and later analyzed in 
Torok et al. (2014). Note that the run analyzed in Torok et al. 
(2014) has a slightly different setup, but is qualitatively the
same (see first paragraph in Torok et al. for the differences).
The folder contains copies of these two articles.

The original data cubes from Leake et al. (2013) were interpolated 
here to a uniform grid. They contain the three components of the 
magnetic field B and the current density J, respectively, as well 
as the coordinates x, y, and z. To comply with the file-size-limit
of the repository (2Gb), we reduced the original extension along 
the z direction from z=[-30,170] to z=[-10,90]. 

Data dumps at three different times are provided:
t = 0   (initial dipole background field)
t = 170 (time shown in Figures 2, 3, and 5 in Torok et al. (2014))
t = 400 (final snapshot of the simulation) 

The data cubes are stored in netcfd format. The folder contains
some (hopefully self-explanatory) IDL and Python code that allow
one to read the data. Please contact me (tibor@predsci.com) if you 
should have problems reading the data.
