The velocity shear which exists between three layers in an ideal plasma is studied. This configuration is modeled as a jet (or, strictly speaking, a wake) embedded in a uniform medium using a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code developed for astrophysical jet simulations. Weak and strong magnetic fields are considered both inside and outside the jet w…
