3D time-dependent kinetic simulation of space plasma disturbances due to moving bodies with the ambient magnetic field effect Original Research Article

General methods are proposed for 3D time-dependent kinetic simulations of stratifications and flute structures of plasma disturbances and wakes of bodies in space with the ambient magnetic field effect. The model Boltzmann equation is solved taking into account the ambient magnetic fields, collisions between plasma particles and interactions with surfaces. Using this solution and the imaginary emission method (that is described by Ponomarjov M.G. in Physical Review E, 54, 5591–5598, 1996; Planetary and Space Science, 43, 1419–1427, 1995) in one specific case the analytical and numerical results are obtained, which describe developing magnetic field aligned 3D stratifications of plasma disturbances and wakes. For magnetic field aligned velocities of the bodies, formation of flute structures along the edges of the flows and wakes is obtained.
