Abstract

An exothermal hydromagnetic discontinuity in a perfectly conducting gas is studied for the case of an arbitrarily orientated magnetic field. The evolutionary modes and the manner of variation of the physical properties for such phenomena are determined. The Hugoniot adiabatic is obtained and analysed.
