Notes. 

(a)

Estimated. Large-scale instabilities make R0 (contact discontinuity) a time-dependent property. In particular, for simulations E and G the mixing is very efficient, eliminating in effect the contact discontinuity altogether.

(b)

Rs, the location of the forward shock of the shocked gas region, where the ISM transition from unshocked to shocked gas can be more accurately measured.

(c)

vw = 15 km s-1 for all models.
