Abstract
Lower bounds for the intensity of the sonic bang of a slender aircraft configuration with various constraints are given in this note which is a condensed version of Ref. 1. Although these lower bounds cannot be achieved in practice the method of obtaining them demonstrates how low values can be obtained. Special emphasis is given to a possible supersonic transport.Keywords
