The shock structure problem is investigated in the framework of the Israel theory of irreversible thermodynamics in the ultrarelativistic limit. It is shown that a regular shock structure may exist only for low Mach numbers. Similarities and differences with the classical case studied by Anile and Majorana are discussed.

Abstract
The shock structure problem is investigated in the framework of the Israel theory of irreversible thermodynamics in the ultrarelativistic limit. It is shown that a regular shock structure may exist only for low Mach numbers. Similarities and differences with the classical case studied by Anile and Majorana are discussed.File in questo prodotto:
