Abstract

After a Modification, the interpolation formula of Mott-Smith (1951) for the shock wave problem is found to be a solution of the Boltzmann equation at large Mach number in a finite region of molecular velocity space. This modification gives a unique determination of the shock wave thickness, removing the ambiguity for this in Mott-Smith's formula.
