Physical tests

Below are given three physical tests of the code, namely the numerical solutions of MHD modes by Menura, the numerical solution of the two stream instability, and the damping of ion acoustic wave by Landau resonance.

• Testing Menura on MHD modes
• Testing Menura on a two-stream instability
• Testing Menura against ion acoustic wave Landau damping

These three examples are further discussed in Menura’s technical publication.
