Abstract

In this paper, a sequence of solutions to the one-dimensional motion of a radiating gas are constructed. Furthermore, when the absorption coefficient α tends to ∞, the above solutions converge to the rarefaction wave, which is an elementary wave pattern of gas dynamics, with a convergence rate \(\alpha ^{ - \tfrac{1} {3}} \left| {\ln \alpha } \right|^2\).
