Scientific paper

Analytic expressions for the wave pressure of propagating shock wave trains in stellar atmospheres or winds are derived. Applications to weak shocks and stronger shocks with sawtooth profiles are discussed in detail. The shocks are treated as discontinuities. The results provide insight in the momentum balance of time-dependent stellar wind flows. The analytic expressions can be used as an independent test of hydrodynamic codes.
