Spatial profiles of (a) density and magnetic field, (b) perpendicular and parallel pressures, (c) perpendicular and parallel temperatures, (d) the values of (﹩{\beta }_{\parallel }-{\beta }_{\perp }﹩), (e) two DP quantities with ﹩{\gamma }_{\perp }=1.77﹩, ﹩{\gamma }_{\parallel }=0.7﹩, ﹩{\gamma }_{\parallel }=1.06﹩, and (f) ion velocity at ﹩t=100\,{\omega }_{{ci}}^{-1}﹩ for the kinetic simulation case with initial parameter values of ﹩{\beta }_{\parallel }=4﹩, ﹩{\beta }_{\perp }=1﹩, and ﹩\theta =20^\circ ﹩.
