Figure 6
The transverse magnetic fields and the energy density distributions of hot electrons at for (a, c) the PT and (b, d) the NLT. is normalized by , and the energy density is normalized by . The average magnetic field near the shock front is about 10 kT. These hot electrons have a typical gyro-radius of .
