Perpendicular fast magnetosonic simple wave ($p=K{\rho }^{\gamma },B=b\rho ,du/d\rho =\pm c_f/\rho$)

For a one-dimensional velocity perpendicular to a transverse magnetic field, $c_f^2=\gamma p/\rho +B^2/({\mu }_0\rho )$. The primitive-variable characteristic matrix has two advective eigenvalues and the two speeds $u\pm c_f$. Integrating the fast eigenvectors keeps $p/{\rho }^{\gamma }$ and $B/\rho$ constant. The state parameter obeys ${\rho }_t+(u\pm c_f){\rho }_x=0$, so the characteristic speed satisfies the Inviscid Burgers equation.
