Dimensionless quantities relative to our laser-driven shock and the interstellar medium shock characterized by Voyager in Burlaga et al. (2013), as a weak subcritical resistive laminar shock.
| Parameters | Our shocks | Shocks as in (1) |
|---|---|---|
| BDS/BUS | 1.5 | 1.4 |
| βther, US | 0.1 | 0.23 |

4.6 | 5 |
| θBn | 90 | 85 |
| Mms | 1.12(exp) − 1.43(sim) | ≈1.9 |
