| 39 | 39 | * Despite the prevalence of radiative cooling in astrophysical systems, researchers including its effects in their studies may not consider its role in detail beyond a brief consideration of timescales. We therefore offer a systematic study based on the shocked-clump scenario. We discuss the regimes of cooling which may occur, depending on parameters, in which the bow shock and transmitted shock cool at varying speeds. We demonstrate that this variance has a great impact on the morphology and evolution of the clump as it is destroyed and mixed into the post-shock flow. |
