Abstract
A solution is given for the problem of the motion of a conducting gas beyond the outlet of an accelerator. The form of the jet is found as well as the distribution of all jet parameters. The problem is solved assuming that the flow is plane, that there are no Hall currents, and that the velocity increase in the jet is small compared with the magnitude of the velocity at the exit of the accelerator channel.
