A steady-state spherical model has been used in this Letter to study the influence of light pressure on plasma flow and density profile modifications. Whereas in former investigations transitions from subsonic to sonic or supersonic flow and the concomitant formation of density steps have been studied in plane models, this paper treats the transition from supersonic to supersonic flow; and the new phenomenon of density plateau formation just below the critical density is found.
