Covariant approach to the interaction of a weak discontinuity with a shock wave
An explicit covariant approach to the problem of evaluating the reflection and transmission coefficients of the fastest discontinuity wave impacting on a shock wave is carried out and applications to the general and polytropic relativistic fluid are performed.
