<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri">This will straddle the boundary of ParaView and Plasma Physics: first, this is a good lesson in the non-reality of the “frozen-in” condition for field lines – they are just integral lines
and something to always keep in mind; second, I think you would have to specify your own list of seed points and have them advect with the plasma over each time step. You would have to use a zero radius and one streamline from each – otherwise you would get
something different each time that wouldn’t look frozen-in.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
