Abstract
We propose a set of quick and easy approximate characteristic variables for higher-order reconstructions of shock capturing schemes for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Numerical experiments suggest that the reconstructions using the approximate characteristic variables are more robust than those using the conservative or primitive variables, while their computational efficiencies are comparable. The approximate characteristic variables are simple compared to the full characteristic variables for MHD, and can be a practical choice of reconstruction variables.
