Technical Point
I have implemented “aurora simulation”
Calculate aurora shape
Calculate energy of each point in auroral curtain
Render aurora (Volume Rendering)

Technical Point
Calculate aurora shape
Modeling of Aurora Borealis Using the Observed Data(Tomokazu et al, 2011)
Observed FAC and potential on auroral layer
(data from CCMC)
Calculate flow of current
Positive→particles fall down

Technical Point
Render aurora (Volume Rendering)
Add emission of aurora energy step by step(from lecture)
Distance Field method accelerates rendering[not implemented]
Emission color→ 557.7nm(green) around 100 km altitude
630.0nm(red) in higher altitude
(from “Simulating the Aurora Borealis” Baranoski, 2000)

Technical Point
Render aurora (Volume Rendering)
Add intersection Auroral Layer and Atmosphere as volume
Considering atmosphere to lose light of aurora is better[not implemented]
