Time-averaged electron temperature (Θe), plasma β, and density (ρ) distributions for models A, B, and C (from top to bottom). The plasma beta parameter is defined as β = pg/pmag, where pg represents the gas pressure, and pmag = b2/2 denotes the magnetic pressure. The black contours in the density profile represent the magnetic field. The average is taken over the time range t = 8000 M to 13 000 M.
