Flow-corrected spatial diffusion coefficients κ according to Eq. (19)for the z-direction parallel to the magnetic background field B₀, and the perpendicular components x and y. For a parallel shock as shown in the upper panel, the diffusion in z-direction, parallel to the shock normal, is the highest. The perpendicular diffusion coefficients in x and y direction are approximately equivalent, as expected. Throughout the shock simulation, the values of all diffusion coefficients continue to rise. A perpendicular shock configuration on the other hand produces significantly different results, as shown in the lower panel. Here, all three components differ significantly from another, with the perpendicular y-component, parallel to the shock normal, having the lowest diffusion coefficient. The parallel z-component, here perpendicular to the shock normal, is again the highest. The x-component lies in between these two. Furthermore, the diffusion coefficients κ_x and κ_y show a peak at around τ ≈ 250. The parallel diffusion coefficient on the other hand continues to rise after this time, but significantly slower than before.
