Abstrakt: Two theoretical models, spherical and cylindrical, of propagation of shockwaves with varying energy in a rotating, magneto-radiative,self-gravitating non-uniform atmosphere have been developed. Subsequently,a comparison between the two models has been drawn with the aid ofvariation of flow variables with distance graphically. Significant is thedifference between two models, when one observes the variations of radialvelocity, pressure, mass, radiation flux, magnetic field and energy withdistance. Also, the respective influences of radiation flux, magneticfield and rotational velocity on the variations of the flow variables havebeen studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
