Caption: Figure 5.

Final snapshot of the fiducial run (a = 0.9375); t/tg = 9000. A color-filled contour shows the total pressure p + b2/2 (in the fluid frame). Contours of equipartition quantities are exhibited (the upper computational domain; 0 ≤ θ ≤ π/2). An orange solid line shows b2/ρ = 1, while green solid lines show βp = 1. ﹩-{u}_{t}=1﹩ (Be ≈ 0) is shown with a magenta dashed line. Other components are identical to those in Figure 2.
