Abstract

Starting from the fundamental equations of magnetohydrodynamics we derive the conservation laws for the case of an ideal plasma. Based on these laws the fundamental equations — that govern the behaviour of magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) shock waves along an arbitrary continuous surface of discontinuity — are obtained. It is shown that the mhd shock waves — similar to those of gas dynamics — are compression waves. Finally the properties of different kinds of mhd shock waves are discussed.
