Caption: Figure 6.
Top panel: transverse (self-generated) component of B for a M = 20 parallel shock at
(Run B). Bottom panel: power spectrum of B⊥ as a function of wavenumber k. The color code matches corresponding shock regions. The vertical dashed and dot-dashed line indicate modes resonant with ions of energy Esh and Emax ~ 300Esh, respectively. Symbols correspond to
, i.e., the spectral energy distribution produced by a ∝p−4 CR distribution via resonant streaming instability.
