Scientific paper

Shock-wave propagation caused by point explosions are examined analytically for the case of a heat-conducting and self-gravitating medium. Ambient gas pressure is insignificant because of the strength of the shock, and a finite amount of energy is released at the point of explosion. The similarity equations describing the phenomenon are solved numerically and yield the changes in velocity, density, temperature, and mass distributions behind the shock wave.
