     46The simulation setup reproduces the correct nondimensional profiles. Here's a comparison of the t=0 nondimensional density and velocity profiles astrobear calculates for the bondi module (left), compared to the Bondi solutions for $\gamma=5/3$ (curves II and III for the case of $\lambda=\lambda_{crit}$).
