The fundamental solution of a modified Oseen problem.
Propagation of chemical waves at very low temperatures, observed experimentally [V.V. Barelko et al., Advances in Chem. Phys. 74 (1988), 339-384.] at velocities of order 10 cm/s, is due to a very non- standard physical mechanism. The energy liberated by the chemical reaction induces destruction of the material, thereby facilitating the reaction, a process very different from standard combustion. In this work we present recent experimental results and develop a new mathematical model which takes...
