Fluid Dyn. 24, No. 4, 625-628 (1989); translation from Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Mekh. Zhidk. Gaza 1989, No. 4, 161-164 (1989).
Summary: The density variation in low-intensity shock waves propagated in an anisotropic rarefied plasma is studied on the basis of a system of relations in the Chew-Goldberger-Low magnetohydrodynamics approximation.
