Scientific paper

A summary of advances made during 1983-1985 in the theory of collisionless heliospheric shocks is presented (with reference to the latest observations of slow shocks in the geomagnetic tail) together with a summary of recently developed simulations of shock structure and shock propagation. Consideration is also given to the theoretical basis for the production of energetic particles by shocks in the solar wind and the corona. Finally, satellite-based observations related to interplanetary and coronal shocks and to heliospheric boundary shock are discussed.
