29. In Ref. 18, the analysis was performed in terms of mass density. In the present study, an analysis in terms of number density is more appropriate.
30. In this work and in Ref. 18, the reaction zone is defined to be the region between the shock discontinuity and the point at which the number of products exceeds that of reactants.
