Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

It will be shown that barotropic magnetohydrodynamics is equivalent to a four function field theory, reducing the number of equations and variables needed to describe the theory from seven (the magnetic field B the velocity field v and the density p )to four function field theory possesses a novel double infinite symmetry group. Non trivial topologies and the differences between stationary and non-stationary flows will be given detailed attention.
