Propagation of cylindrical shock waves in a non-uniform, rotating stellar atmosphere under the action of monochromatic radiation and gravitation

Abstract

A self-similar, theoretical model of propagation of.cylindrical shock wave in a magneto- gas dynamic rotating non-uniform atmosphere in the presence of monochromatic radiation and gravitation, is considered. The result discussed depends upon the variations of the flow variables behind the shock, which are displayed graphically. A special case is considered in presence and absence of gravitation along with rotation to observe the influence of gravitation.
