Global existence of spherically symmetric solutions for nonlinear compressible Navier-Stokes equations

This paper concerns the global existence of. solutions in H(i)(i = 1, 2, 4) for the nonlinear compressible Navier-Stokes equations of an initial-boundary value problem with an external force and a heat source. Some important inequalities are used and some new results are obtained. (C) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
