Notes. The first column lists the simulation labels, identifying the unique attributes of each case. Columns 2–4 detail the jet injection radius, velocity, and magnetic field strength, respectively. These parameters were carefully selected to maintain a constant jet power across all cases, which allows investigation into whether intrinsic parameters, rather than jet power, drive radio galaxy evolution. Column 5 describes the jet’s propagation relative to the axis of the ambient medium. Columns 6 and 7 specify the computational domain and grid distribution, ensuring that five grid cells are allocated per jet injection radius. Finally, remarks for each case are included in the last column for clarity. The jet–to–ambient density contrast is fixed at 10−6 in all of these cases.
