An attempt is made to generalise Bloch and Kato's calculation of some of the local Tamagawa factors appearing in their conjecture, from the crystalline case to the semi‐stable case. Success is attained only under severe conditions, but the result applies to the symmetric powers of an elliptic curve with multiplicative reduction. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 11G40.
