Description
There are three data packets in total, which are idealized RCM simulation output files related to electron distribution function and spectra for Figure 2, realistic RCM simulation output files related to electron distribution function and spectra for Figure 3, and idealized RCM simulation output files related to predicted proton distribution function and spectra for Extended Data Figure 1.
The names of RCM simulation output files specify the simulation time in a format of "hhmmss".
In the output files for electron or proton distribution function, the stored quantities are: "I","J","COLAT","ALOCT","BNDLOC","XMIN","YMIN","VM","FTV", "BMIN","V", "BIRK(N.H)", "EETA", "VEFF","W,eV","flux","df","P".
In the idealized RCM simulation output files for electron or proton spectra, the stored quantities are: "I","Energy_channel","Energy","Xmin","Ymin","Diff_flux(1/keV/cm2/s/sr)","Bz".
In the realistic RCM simulation output files for electron spectra, the stored quantities are: "Energy_channel","Positions","Energy","SC_X","SC_Y","SC_L","EQ_X","EQ_Y","EQ_Z","Diff_flux(1/keV/cm2/s/sr)","Bz"
