Abstract

When air flows past a body moving at high Mach numbers, a bow shock forms in front of the body. If the flight Mach number is high enough, air will dissociate and form species as O, N, NO; if the Mach number corresponds to energies of order about 1 eV (about 11,000 K), ionization also takes place, and O +, NO +, N + and e will appear.
