Abstract

The results of experimental and numerical investigations into magnetohydrodynamic actions on the supersonic flow of a weakly ionized xenon plasma around a wedge are presented. The conditions of numerical simulation correspond to the conditions of experiments carried out on the Bol’shaya shock tube at the Ioffe Physicotechnical Institute.
