abstract = "This paper describes a study of the five-moment two-fluid plasma model and the asymptotically approximated fluid model that is derived from it. The two models are compared for applications of an electromagnetic plasma shock, magnetic reconnection and an axisymmetric Z-pinch. The physics captured is compared between these fluid models to determine the regime of applicability. These models are explored for their ability to capture small-scale physics with two-fluid effects that are not sufficiently captured by ideal-MHD.",
