Magnitude of the DC magnetic field peak at saturation as a function of the initial shear gradient length for ﹩{{v}_{0}}/c=0.2﹩. The error bars are associated with the fluctuations of the peak value in the saturation stage. The dashed line represents the best fit curve to the simulation results, given by ﹩eB_{\text{DC}}^{\text{sat}}/{{m}_{e}}c{{\omega }_{pe}}=0.2/(1+0.6L{{\omega }_{pe}}/c)﹩.
