    "abstract": "The results of MHD plane shock waves with infinite electrical conductivity\nare generalized for a plasma with a finite conductivity. We derive the\nadiabatic curves that describe the evolution of the shocked gas as well as the\nchange in the entropy density. For a parallel shock (i.e., in which the\nmagnetic field is parallel to the normal to the shock front) we find an\nexpression for the shock thickness which is a function of the ambient magnetic\nfield and of the finite electrical conductivity of the plasma. We give\nnumerical estimates of the physical parameters for which the shock thickness is\nof the order of, or greater than, the mean free path of the plasma particles in\na strongly magnetized plasma.",
