Abstract
In the presence of uniform magnetic field in an infinitely conducting fluid, the pressure behind the MHD shock wave is investigated after the shock wave has interacted with the density variation parallel to the shock front. The case is generalized to another density variation perpendicular to the shock front. The density variation is due to a small discontinuity jump across the interfaces. The problem is formulated under the assumption of small change in density and the shock profile is obtained. It is observed that the curvature of the shock increases as the Mach number decreases or the strength of the magnetic field increases.
