The dataset contains simulation data used in the paper of "New Insights on the High Reconnection Rate and the Diminishment of Ion Outflow". Data are generated from a particle-in-cell simulation using the VPIC code. Please see the paper for the descriptions of the simulation setup. The fields_moments.gda files in runs.7z are fields and plasma moments data of the simulations presented in the paper. The time step in unit of twci for each simulation is: A1:0.025, A2:0.1, A3:0.25, A4:0.25, A5:0.5, B1:0.1, B2:0.1, B3:0.1, B4:0.025, B5:0.05, C1:0.02, C2:0.02. Each file contains float-type data arrays with a size of (Lx/Δ)1(Lz/Δ), corresponding to x-y-z dimensions, respectively. Lx, Lz and Δ for each simulation are presented in the paper. Data can be read by softwares like IDL, python, matlab, etc., using the standard data reading methods. The runs_Hparticle_t_x_z files contain ion particle data for the time step t, for the domain of x=[x-0.03, x+0.03]di, z=[z-0.03,z+0.03]di. The files are IDL save files. To read the data, use restore, file=file in IDL. Each data chunk constitues of the following variables in order: all_vxs, all_vys, all_vzs, ws, all_xs, all_ys. Here all_vxs, all_vys and all_vzs are velocities in unit of light speed (c); all_xs and all_ys are x and z locations in unit of de; ws represents the weight of the particles, so the contribution of a particle to the phase space density needs to multiply by this ws factor (In the paper, ws factors are re-normalized while the relative weights between particles remain the same).
