Physics of Shock Waves and High-Temperature Hydrodynamic Phenomena, Volume II presents interpretations of the physical basis of shockwaves and high-temperature hydrodynamic phenomena and gives practical guidance to those who work with these subjects in science and modern technology. This volume contains chapters discussing such topics as the shockwave structure in gases; physical and chemical kinetics in hydrodynamic processes; the radiative phenomena in shock waves and in strong explosions in the air; thermal waves and shockwaves in solids; and self-similar processes in gasdynamics. Physicists, engineers, researchers, and professors and students in the field of the physical sciences will find the book very educational.

159 elements only between states which differ in one of the single-electron wave functions, in short, HeR induces only one-electron transitions. The matrix elements 1mn and Pmn reduce to matrix elements between the single-electron wave functions. We are interested primarily in crystalline solids for which the band model is a good approximation. The Bloch single-electron wave function in this model has the form: N'I ili-';; U. r.;;) ( (1.14) ""nk r, =e nh\r , where n is the band index and U (r) has the periodicity of the lattice. The form of the Bloch function follows from the translational symmetry of the crystal, and the matrix elements between Bloch states are subject to the condition of wave-vector conservation: k'=k, for
