CSEM Experience with Community Modeling
Tamas Gombosi
What We Provide Today• SWMF source code is freely available (after registration)• SWMF has extensive documentation on-line
– 150 page User Manual– Publications describing the SWMF and BATS-R-US are online (in
PDF format)• User friendly web interface
– Code control, run control, visualization• Daily test run on at least five platforms
– CVS version control– E-mail notification of failures
• BATS-R-US was the first model at CCMC– We have 7 years of experience and good relations– Provide regular updates and help troubleshooting– ~60% of all CCMC runs were made with CSEM codes
Main Issues (Tamas’ Opinion)
• Who chooses the Community models?• What are the expectations
– Troubleshooting– Documentation– Validation
• Providing short test runs with all input and output files is essential
• Source code needs to be available (but with licence agreement)
• Honesty with model/physics limitations and problems
Model Issues
• From magnetogram to corona– Synoptic magnetic field– Plasma parameters– How to heat the corona?
• From corona to solar wind– How to match observations at the Sun and Earth?– We need to move to full qualitative models
(providing plasma and magnetic field parameters)
• STEREO images cannot be interpreted without qualitative 3D models
• Components of the framework can be easily selected for use.
• Some components have multiple versions or even alternative models

GUI:Run Control
• Upload SW driver or satellite position files.
• Edit run parameter files.• Edit queue submission
files.• Execute jobs.
GUI:Visualization
• Visualize run output using quality templates with many customizable options.
• Outputs postscript, png, animated gif, …
