Cosmic Gasdynamic Studies at the Chair of Aeromechanics and Gas Dynamics

Abstract

Problems related to cosmic gasdynamic studies at the Chair of Aeromechanics and Gasdynamics of Lomonosov Moscow State University are discussed. We give main directions and methods of the space studies at our chair. Results of the developed theoretical models describing and predicting physical phenomena in space are presented in details. The models include the interaction of the solar wind with the local interstellar medium and comet atmospheres, motions of the interstellar medium under nonequilibrium ionization.
