The author is deeply grateful to V. F. D'yachenko and Ya. M. Kazhdan for their attention and useful discussions of the results. Appreciation is also due Ya. M. Kazhdan for furnishing certain data on the self-similar solution in the cylindrically symmetric case and for incisive critical remarks regarding the existence of a solution of the gasdynamical problem with regard for dissipation effects.
