Scientific paper

Results of calculations of shock waves generated by coronal transients and expanding flare loops are presented. The expanding magnetic loops act as a piston on the coronal plasma and produce shock waves propagating in the solar wind. The shock waves are computed in a 1D two-fluid approximation, taking turbulent dissipation processes into account. Shock wave parameters are obtained as functions of the initial perturbations of the magnetic loops.
