Abstract
In 1977 Korchinski presented a new type of shock discontinuity in conservation laws. These singular solutions were coined -shocks since there is a time dependent Dirac delta involved. A naive description is that such -shock is of the overcompressive type: a two-family shock wave the four characteristic lines of which impinge into the shock itself. In this work, we open the fan of solutions by studying two-family waves without intermediate constant states but, possessing central rarefactions and also comprising -shocks.
