Thin Layer Approximation in 3-D

arXiv:astro-ph/9707188 · doi:10.1007/BFb0104708

Abstract

Equations are derived which describe a propagation of strong shocks in the interstellar matter, without any demands for a symmetry, in a thin layer approximation (2.5 dimensions). Using these equations permits to calculate a propagation of shock waves from nonsymmetric supernovae explosions in the medium with arbitrary density distribuion, formation of superbubbles in galaxies.
