摘要: Magnetic fields are an essential component of a plasma. In many astrophysical, solar, magnetospheric, and laboratory situations the magnetic field in plasma can be very dynamic form highly complex structures. One approach to unraveling these structures is determine skeleton field, set topological features that divide into topologically distinct domains. general, difficult locate, particular those given by numerical experiments. this paper, we propose new tools find general including null points, spines, separatrix surfaces, separators. This found considerably better at finding than currently favored methods used magnetohydrodynamics.
