โฆ Synopsis
We investigate a system of partial di erential equations modelling ionized magnetized reactive gas mixtures. In this model, dissipative uxes are anisotropic linear combinations of uid variable gradients and also include zeroth-order contributions modelling the direct e ect of electromagnetic forces. There are also gradient dependent source terms like the conduction current in the Maxwell-Ampere equation. We introduce the notion of partial symmetrizability and that of entropy for such systems of partial di erential equations and establish their equivalence. By using entropic variables, we recast the system into a partially normal form, that is, in the form of a quasilinear partially symmetric hyperbolic-parabolic system. Using a result of Vol'Pert and Hudjaev, we prove local existence and uniqueness of a bounded smooth solution.
