Propagation of magnetogasdynamic shock waves in a self-gravitating gas with exponentially varying density

AbstractNon-similarity solutions are obtained for one-dimensional adiabatic flow behind a magnetogasdynamic spherical (or cylindrical) shock wave propagating in a self-gravitating perfect gas in the presence of a constant azimuthal magnetic field. The density of the gas is assumed to be varying and obeying an exponential law. The shock wave moves with variable velocity, and the […]
