Abstract
The continuity of hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic axisymmetric st ationary flows near singular points of acoustic surfaces is investigat ed when the flows are far from spherical symmetry. It is shown that th e flow is still continuous at the time the characteristics undergo a b ifurcation, but may become discontinuous when the flow is distorted fu rther.
