Scientific paper

The present parametric study of interplanetary shock propagation to 1 AU uses a two- and-one-half-dimensional MHD time-dependent model whose input conditions encompass initial shock velocity, driving-pulse duration, and pulse width at the near-sun position of 18 solar radii. It is found that, for input pulses with modest angular width and temporal duration, the propagation of the resulting interplanetary fast-forward shock waves primarily depends on the net input energy. While the properties of the reverse shocks are also a function of input energy, they depend on the specific values of the input pulse shock velocity, width, and duration.
