We present new solutions to the strong explosion problem in a non-power law density profile. The unperturbed self-similar solutions discovered by Waxman & Shvarts describe strong Newtonian shocks propagating into a cold gas with a density…
We present new solutions to the strong explosion problem in a non power law density profi{}le. The unperturbed self similar solutions developed by Sedov, Taylor and Von Neumann describe strong Newtonian shocks propagating into a cold gas…
We examine the stability of self-similar solutions for an accelerating relativistic blast wave which is generated by a point explosion in an external medium with a steep radial density profile of a power-law index > 4.134. These…
Propagation of a blast wave due to strong explosion in the center of a power-law-density ($\rho \propto r^{-\alpha}$) spherically symmetric atmosphere is studied. For adiabatic index of 5/3, the solution was known to be self-similar, (of…
A new type of self-similarity is found in the problem of a plane-parallel, ultra-relativistic blast wave, propagating in a powerlaw density profile of the form $\rho \propto z^{-k}$. Self-similar solutions of the first kind can be found for…
We derive self similar solutions for ultra-relativistic shock waves propagating into cold material of powerlaw density profile in radius rho ~ r^-k. We treat both implosions and explosions in three geometries: planar, cylindrical and…
Self similarity allows for analytic or semi-analytic solutions to many hydrodynamics problems. Most of these solutions are one dimensional. Using linear perturbation theory, expanded around such a one-dimensional solution, we find…
Self-similar solutions to the problem of a strong imploding relativistic shock wave are calculated. These solutions represent the relativistic generalisation of the Newtonian Gouderley-Landau-Stanyukovich problem of a strong imploding…
Self-similar solutions to converging (implosions) and diverging (explosions) shocks have been studied before, in planar, cylindrical or spherical symmetry. Here we offer a unified treatment of these apparently disconnected problems . We…
The ultra-relativistic Euler equations for an ideal gas are described in terms of the pressure, the spatial part of the dimensionless four-velocity and the particle density. Radially symmetric solutions of these equations are studied in two…
The ultra-relativistic Euler equations for an ideal gas are described in terms of the pressure $p$, the spatial part $\underline{u} \in \R^3$ of the dimensionless four-velocity and the particle density $n$. Radially symmetric solutions of…
In this paper we extend the Sedov - Taylor - Von Neumann model for a strong explosion to account for small angular and radial variations in the density. We assume that the density profile is given by…
We consider the solutions of the Guderley problem, consisting of an imploding strong shock wave in an ideal gas with a power law initial density profile. The self-similar solutions, and specifically the similarity exponent which determines…
Motivated by recent breakthrough on smooth imploding solutions of compressible Euler, we construct self-similar smooth imploding solutions of isentropic relativistic Euler equations with isothermal equation of state $p=\frac1\ell\varrho$…
A spherical blast wave with relativistic velocity can be described by a similarity solution, that is used for theoretical models of gamma-ray bursts. We consider the linear stability of such a relativistic blast wave propagating into a…
We solve the continuation problem for the non-isentropic Euler equations following the collapse of an imploding shock wave. More precisely, we prove that the self-similar G\"uderley imploding shock solutions for a perfect gas with adiabatic…
We perform fully nonlinear numerical simulations to study aspherical deformations of the critical self-similar solution in the gravitational collapse of ultra-relativistic fluids. Adopting a perturbative calculation, Gundlach predicted that…
We present a class of self-similar solutions describing ultrahigh compression of a uniform-density target by spherically converging, stacked shock waves. Extending the classical Guderley model, we derive a scaling law for the final density…
The study of spherically symmetric motion is important for the theory of explosion waves. In this paper, we construct rigorously self-similar solutions to the Riemann problem of the spherically symmetric Euler equations for general…
Coughlin et al. (2018) (Paper I) derived and analyzed a new regime of self-similarity that describes weak shocks (Mach number of order unity) in the gravitational field of a point mass. These solutions are relevant to low energy explosions,…
