Magneto-Hydro Dynamic simulation result of the Kelvin-Helmholtz wave at t=410 s. The magnetic field (arrows) and the z-component of the current density Jz (colour coded) are plotted on the left panel. The right panel represents the velocity (arrows) and the density (colour coded). The black lines are magnetic field lines.
