A Note on the Evolutionary Condition on Hydromagnetic Shocks

Journal Article · · Progress of Theoretical Physics (Kyoto)
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1143/PTP.28.756· OSTI ID:4720854
It is proved that. for hydromagnetic fast and slow shocks the evolutionary condition implies the entropy condition, i.e., that the evolutionary condition and the conservation laws determine a physically relevant solution. This proof is carried out by considering an evolutionary magnetoacoustic (fast or slow) shock. (T.F.H.)
