Theory and simulations of field strengths in magnetosonic shock waves in finite beta plasmas

Field strengths in an oblique magnetosonic shock wave in a collisionless, finite beta plasma are studied with theory and simulations. With the use of the warm, two-fluid model, the maximum values of the magnetic field, the transverse electric field, and the electric potential in a shock wave are ana...
