The authors solve the 1D Riemann problem for van der Waals gases for arbitrary initial distributions and study the existence and uniqueness of shock, contact discontinuity, and simple wave solutions. R-H and Lax conditions are derived. Conditions on the initial data for shock solutions and/or simple waves are obtained. Interaction of two shocks is also studied.
