Snapshots of the y-averaged quantities from MHD simulations with Co* = 2,  5,  10, and 20. Each panel, from top to bottom, displays the y-averaged profiles of the x velocity, v x $ \widetilde{v}\prime_{x} $, z velocity, v z $ \widetilde{v}\prime_{z} $, y vorticity, ζ y $ \widetilde{\zeta}\prime_{y} $, pressure perturbation, p 1 $ \widetilde{p}\prime_{1} $, magnetic energy density, p mag $ \widetilde{p}_{\mathrm{mag}} $, velocity correlation, ρ 0 v x v z $ \rho_0 \widetilde{v_x\prime v_z\prime} $, and magnetic field correlation, B x B z / 4 π $ \widetilde{B_x B_z}/4\pi $. In rapidly rotating cases MHD-Co10 and MHD-Co20 (panels c–d), black curves indicate contour lines of the y vorticity at ζ y = 2 τ 1 $ \widetilde{\zeta}\prime_{y} = 2 \ \tau_{*}^{-1} $.
