Abstract

A self-similar solution, for the equatorial propagation of axisymmetric point explosion into an inhomogeneous ideal gas permeated by a current-free azimuthal magnetic field, are obtained. The model has been considered here in which the magnetic field is proportional tor −1, but the total energy of the wave is of the increasing order, not constant.
