(a) Total number of cores, and (b) number of cores at maximum of the distribution, as a function of the Mach number Ms. Filled (open) squares denote results from SPH (TVD) runs. Solid lines represent least‐squares fits to the data, and m represents the slope of the fit. Note that, for each data set, the number increases as Ms increases.
