The author drew attention to the contradictions existing in the theory of gas and hydrodynamics as well as in magnetohydrodynamics as early asin 1994, when he publishedthe article “On the stability problem of the tangential discontinuity” in the journal “Planetary and Space Sciences” [1]. Particularly intensive theoretical research in this direction has been carried out over the past 10 years at I. Vekua Sokhumi Institute of Physics and Technology and at Sokhumi State University. Many works have been published in reputable journals, in which the contradictions and absurdity of some of the concepts ingrainedin modern gas and hydrodynamics have been shown, and ways to overcome them have been indicated. Despite of this, these works did not receive proper feedback from the scientific communityand it can be explained by the conservatism of thinking of specialists in this field of physics. Based on this, we believe that it will be useful to provide interested readers with a review article based on the most important works published by us andonce again todraw their attention to the relevance of the problem.
