Slices through our fiducial Mach 3 simulation at t = 180 Myr showing plasma beta values. The grey lines mark the corrugated shock surface and the contact discontinuity (i.e. the region within which tracers have been injected). Despite significant amplification, beta values are typically well above 10, limiting the ability of the magnetic field to affect dynamics.
