Abstract
The influence of compressibility on a subsonic axisymmetric shear flow over a slender prolate spheroid is studied by the M0(2) expansion met hod where M0 denotes the Mach number on the body axis. Especially, the value of the reciprocal of a dimensionless vorticity parameter which denotes the dividing stream detached from the slender body is obtained in terms of the slenderness ratio and the Mach number.
