This technical note reports the expression of selected higher-order moments associated with the Mott-Smith solution of the shock-wave profile. The considered moments are the pressure tensor, the heat-flux vector and tensor, the fourth-order double-tensor, its full contraction, and the fifth-order moment vector. The resulting shock profiles are shown for Mach 2 and Mach 10 conditions.
