The Magnetohydrodynamics of Shock-Cloud Interaction in Three Dimensions (2008)
Shin, Min-Su, Stone, James M., Snyder, Gregory F.
The magnetohydrodynamic evolution of a dense spherical cloud as it interacts with a strong planar shock is studied, as a model for shock interactions with density inhomogeneities in the interstellar...
