Analytical structure of steady radiative shocks in magnetic cataclysmic variables

Résumé

In this paper we study specific classes of radiating shocks which are widely spread in astrophysical environments. We present new analytical solutions available for any exponents of typical power-law cooling function which generalize the five special cases (corresponding to specific values of these exponents) of radiating shocks structure and proceed to the analytical determination of physical quantities. Then an application of the results for the accretion shock in polar is realized. A discussion of the reproducibility of cooling layer in laboratory is proposed using scaling laws.
