Abstract
Extended particle‐in‐cell investigations of ion‐acoustic shocks with isothermal electrons verify predictions of a maximal shock Mach number slightly above 1.5 and demonstrate the presence of post‐frontal turbulence that intensifies with both the Mach number and initial electron‐to‐ion temperature ratio.Keywords
