Abstract
To help guide our intuition, summarize important features, and point out essential elements, we review the analytical solutions of Landau (1+1)-dimensional
hydrodynamics and exhibit the full evolution of the dynamics from the
very beginning to subsequent times. Special emphasis is placed on the
matching and the interplay between the Khalatnikov solution and the
Riemann simple wave solution at the earliest times and in the edge regions at
later times.
