MHD Wave propagation (group velocities)
Note : Gas pressure is plotted.
Colors are controlled with max/min in each frame, thus
do not represent absolute values.
All background variables, density, temperature, and magnetic field strength, are set to be 1
in dimensionless system,
and the specific heat ratio = 5/3.
