Similarity solutions describing the flow of a perfect optically-thin gas behind a strong plane shock wave propagating in an exponentially decreasing atmosphere are presented. Planck's diffusion approximation has been taken into account to study the effects of radiation heat flux. The tabulated data show that the change in particle velocity is very slow for all the sets of values in comparison to pressure and density variations. In the absence of radiation heat flux, the variation in density behind the shock wave is found to be very large.
