We evaluate by direct calculation the Lopatinski determinant for ZND detonations in Majda's model for reacting flow and show that on the nonstable (nonneg-ative real part) complex half-plane it has a single zero at the origin of multiplicity one, implying stability. Together with results of Zumbrun on the inviscid limit, this recovers the result of Roquejoffre-Vila that viscous detonations of Majda's model also are stable for sufficiently small viscosity, for any fixed detonation strength, heat release, and rate of reaction.
