The propagation of strong-plane magnetogasdynamic shock waves in an optically-thin atmosphere

The propagation of plane magnetogasdynamic shock waves in an optically-thin grey atmosphere of non-uniform density has been discussed by the use of the similarity method, by use of Planck's diffusion approximation. The distribution of pressure, density, magnetic field, velocity, temperature, and radiation flux have been illustrated through graphs. The numerical integration has been done on a DEC-1090 computer under a RKGS programme.
