The application provides 3D interaction with a Sun
object that serves as container for an arbitrary number of local 3D models
that may be embedded in a global built-in coronal model.
The default coronal model is analytically defined
through an adjustable set of predefined parameters. However the user has the
ability to add an arbitrary number of additional parameters that may be used
to modify the default coronal model.
A 3D magnetic field model may be imported from a
standard IDL sav file, provided that the file data structure complies with a
set of predefined conventions.
Interactive tools are provided for generating an
arbitrary number of field lines originating in any voxel of the data cube
model.
Interactive tools are provided for defining magnetic
flux tubes associated with a central field line.
Interactive tools are provided for populating the flux
tube volume with user adjustable thermal and nonthermal electron distributions
A predefined set of user adjustable electron energy
distributions is provided.
A predefined set of user adjustable electron angular
distributions is provided.
Ability to save the final model configuration for
future use is provided.
Interactive tools for choosing an adjustable field of
view are provided.
Predefined fast gyrosynchrotron (GS) and X-ray codes
are provided for computing the imaging maps in the wavelength interval of
interest.
A built in calling convention provides the means of
integrating alternative codes designed to solve the radiation transfer
equation in the same or other wavelength ranges of interest based on the line
of sight (LOS) information provided by the simulator.
Ability to save the imaging data output as well as the
full LOS information used to compute the maps is provided.
A widget interface, namely GX_Explorer, compliments the GX_Simulator package by providing
fast means for interactive inspection of the output data files.
An integrated
Plotman object that provides means for model to data comparison
A built-in magnetic field extrapolation engine that
may be used to produce potential fied extrapolation (PFE) or linear force free field extrapolation (LFFF) models based on inut magnetic fied maps.
