In recent years, numerical solutions of the equations of compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows have been found to contain intermediate shocks for certain kinds of problems. Since these results would seem to be in conflict with the classical theory of MHD shocks, they have stimulated attempts to reexamine various aspects of …
