abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">A discontinuous Galerkin method for the ideal 5 moment two-fluid plasma
system is presented. The method uses a second or third order discontinuous Galerkin
spatial discretization and a third order TVD Runge-Kutta time stepping scheme. The
method is benchmarked against an analytic solution of a dispersive electron acoustic
square pulse as well as the two-fluid electromagnetic shock [1] and existing numerical
solutions to the GEM challenge magnetic reconnection problem [2]. The algorithm can
be generalized to arbitrary geometries and three dimensions. An approach to maintaining
small gauge errors based on error propagation is suggested.</p>},
