Abstract

We consider $n$ tubes exiting a junction and filled with a non viscous isentropic or isothermal fluid. In each tube a copy of the $p$-system in Euler coordinates is considered. The aim of the presentation is to compare three different notions of solutions at the junctions: p-solutions, Q-solutions and P-solutions.
