Complex Plasma Vortex - Velocity Distribution Map

The velocity distribution maps of dust vortices were obtained. The software package OpenDX was used to generate the visualization of the velocity distribution map in 3-D. To see the 3-D map in realtime, please click here. (You will need the plug-in CosmoPlayer)
