... Shock is a non-linear plasma wave generated by plasma flow (Burgess, 1995). ... Shocks are thus places where plasma and field go through dramatic changes in density, temperature, field strength, and/or flow speed. If there is no plasma flow through the surface (Un <> 0) or there is no dissipation and compression across it, we talk about discontinuity only, not shock. ... Contact discontinuity . ... Plasma pressure and field strength increase at shock; magnetic field bends away from normal . ...
