abstract = "The study of the interaction between solid objects and
magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluids is of great importance in physics
as consequence of the significant phenomena generated, such as
planets interacting with stellar wind produced by their host
stars. There are several computational tools created to simulate
hydrodynamic and MHD fluids, such as the FLASH code. In this code
there is a feature which permits the placement of rigid bodies in
the domain to be simulated. However, it is available and tested
for pure hydrodynamic cases only. Our aim here is to adapt the
existing resources of FLASH to enable the placement of a rigid
body in MHD scenarios and, with such a scheme, to produce the
simulation of a non-magnetized planet interacting with the stellar
wind produced by a sun-like star. Besides, we consider that the
planet has no significant atmosphere. We focus our studies on the
patterns of the density, magnetic field and velocity around the
planet, as well as the influence of the viscosity on such
patterns.",
