Low-Frequency Waves in Space Plasmas
Author: Andreas Keiling
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119054958
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
Low-frequency waves in space plasmas have been studied for several decades, and our knowledge gain has been incremental with several paradigm-changing leaps forward. In our solar system, such waves occur in the ionospheres and magnetospheres of planets, and around our Moon. They occur in the solar wind, and more recently, they have been confirmed in the Sun’s atmosphere as well. The goal of wave research is to understand their generation, their propagation, and their interaction with the surrounding plasma. Low-frequency Waves in Space Plasmas presents a concise and authoritative up-to-date look on where wave research stands: What have we learned in the last decade? What are unanswered questions? While in the past waves in different astrophysical plasmas have been largely treated in separate books, the unique feature of this monograph is that it covers waves in many plasma regions, including: Waves in geospace, including ionosphere and magnetosphere Waves in planetary magnetospheres Waves at the Moon Waves in the solar wind Waves in the solar atmosphere Because of the breadth of topics covered, this volume should appeal to a broad community of space scientists and students, and it should also be of interest to astronomers/astrophysicists who are studying space plasmas beyond our Solar System.

The Sun from Space
Author: Kenneth R. Lang
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540769536
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 583
Book Description
The First Edition of The Sun from Space, completed in 1999, focused on the early accomplishments of three solar spacecraft, SOHO, Ulysses, and Yohkoh, primarily during a minimum in the Sun’s 11-year cycle of magnetic activity. The comp- hensive Second Edition includes the main ndings of these three spacecraft over an entire activity cycle, including two minima and a maximum, and discusses the signi cant results of six more solar missions. Four of these, the Hinode, RHESSI, STEREO, and TRACE missions were launched after the First Edition was either nished or nearly so, and the other two, the ACE and Wind spacecraft, extend our investigations from the Sun to its varying input to the Earth. The Second Edition does not contain simple updates or cosmetic patch ups to the material in the First Edition. It instead contains the relevant discoveries of the past decade, integrated into chapters completely rewritten for the purpose. This provides a fresh perspective to the major topics of solar enquiry, written in an enjoyable, easily understood text accessible to all readers, from the interested layperson to the student or professional.

Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in Solar Plasmas
Author: Abhishek Kumar Srivastava
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0323956653
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in The Solar Plasma provides comprehensive and up-to-date theory and practice of the fundamentals of heliospheric research and the Sun's basic plasma processes, covering the dynamics of the solar interior to its exterior in the framework of magnetohydrodynamics. The book covers novel aspects of solar and heliospheric physics, astrophysics and space science, and fundamentals of the fluids and plasmas. Topics covered include key phenomena in the solar interior such as magnetism, dynamo physics, and helioseismology; dynamics and plasma processes in its exterior including fluid processes such as waves, shocks, instabilities, reconnection, and dynamics in the partially ionized plasma; and physics and science related to coronal heating, solar wind, and eruptive phenomena. The content has been developed to specifically cover fundamental physics-related descriptions and up-to-date developments of the scientific research related to these significant topics. The book therefore provides the entire fundamental and front-line research aspects of solar and heliospheric plasma processes, mainly in the context of solar plasma, however, the content also has larger implications for the astrophysical plasma, and laboratory plasma, fluid dynamics, and associated basic theories. It also includes additional supplementary content such as key instruments and experimental techniques in the form of appendices, boxed-off key information highlighting the most fundamental and key aspects, and worked examples with additional question sets.Magnetohydrodynamic Processes in The Solar Plasma covers both the fundamentals of the topics included as well as up-to-date and future developments in this research field, forming an essential, foundational reference for researchers, academics, and advanced students, in the field of solar physics and astrophysics, as well as neighboring disciplines. - Applies fundamental solar science and research in magnetohydrodynamic processes to practice, and uses in teaching and research - Covers the latest developments in solar plasma processes in terms of both theoretical and fundamental aspects. - Includes the large cohort of plasma processes (e.g., waves, shocks, instabilities, reconnection, heating, magnetism, seismology) significant for the diverse scales of the plasmas and fluids. - Provides detailed physical and mathematical descriptions of the theories in each chapter, along with scientific details, which will enhance understanding of basic phenomena and aid in applying the practical content to current research
