Models of steady-state plane-parallel shock waves propagating through the unperturbed hydrogen gas of temperature T=6000K and density rho = 1e-10 gm/cm^3 are computed for upstream velocities from 15 km/s to 70 km/s. The shock wave structure…
We report on experimental observations of the bending of a dust acoustic shock wave around a dust void region. This phenomenon occurs as a planar shock wavefront encounters a compressible obstacle in the form of a void whose size is larger…

In this work, we track the evolution of an ultrarelativistic fluid onto a Kerr black hole, on the equatorial plane. In this treatment, we consider the limit where the rest mass density is neglected, that is, the approximation is valid in…
A general thermodynamic treatment of dissipative relativistic fluids is introduced, where the temperature four vector is not parallel to the velocity field of the fluid. Generic stability and kinetic equilibrium points out a particular…
Bulk superfluid helium supports two sound modes: first sound is an ordinary pressure wave, while second sound is a temperature wave, unique to inviscid superfluid systems. These sound modes do not usually exist independently, but rather…
Transition radiation from relativistic electrons is investigated in an ultrasonic superlattice excited in a finite thickness plate. In the quasi-classical approximation formulae are derived for the vector potential of the electromagnetic…
A study by computer simulation is reported of the behaviour of a quantized vortex line at a very low temperature when there is continuous excitation of low-frequency Kelvin waves. There is no dissipation except by phonon radiation at a very…
Experimental data suggests that, at temperatures below 1 K, the pressure in liquid helium has a cubic dependence on density. Thus the speed of sound scales as a cubic root of pressure. Near a critical pressure point, this speed approaches…
Shock wave formation and propagation in two-dimensional granular materials under vertical vibration are studied by digital high speed photography. The steepen density and temperature wave fronts form near the plate as granular layer…

We study the gravitational wave (GW) production in extremely strong first order phase transitions where the latent heat density dominates the plasma energy density, $\alpha \gtrsim 1$. In such transitions, bubbles develop extremely thin and…
