Abstract
Asymptotic solutions are constructed for
the problem of the shock-wave structure
in mixtures of gases with disparate
molecular masses. The effect of
emergence of a plateau on the density
profile of the light component and
nonmonotonicity of the temperature
profile of the heavy component is
described. Based on a comparison with
calculations of the full model, the
range of applicability of asymptotic
solutions is determined.
