Contours of the magnetization of the equatorial wind (σwind; solid lines; Equation (B3)), and of the polar jet (σj; dashed lines; Equation (B5)) regions of the protomagnetar outflow, in the parameter space of surface-magnetic-field strength BP and spin period P, as estimated analytically in Appendix B and calculated assuming ﹩{L}_{{\bar{\nu }}_{e}}=6\times 1{0}^{51}﹩ erg s−1 and θj = 20° for the size of the polar cap contributing to the polar jet. The locations of protomagnetar wind models are shown as solid points as marked. Our most strongly magnetized and rapidly spinning models achieve σj ≳ 20–50, showing that their jets may be capable of powering GRB emission.
