Simulation results from the additional eight runs with different initial conditions. Each panel consists of two plots. The upper plot shows the magnetic field Bz in the XZ plane at the time when the RFs are fully developed in the simulation. The lower plot shows the profiles of Bz in the X direction across the center of the RF at five different instants.
