MHD Structures, Waves and Turbulence in the Solar Wind
Observations and Theories

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This text gives a comprehensive overview of recent observational and theoretical results on solar wind structures and fluctuations and magnetohydrodynamic waves and turbulence, preference being given to phenomena in the inner heliosphere. Emphasis is placed on the progress made in the past decade in the understanding of the nature and origin of especially small-scale, compressible and incompressible fluctuations. Turbulence models describing the spatial transport and spectral transfer of the fluctuations in the inner heliosphere are discussed. Intermittency of solar wind fluctuations and their statistical distributions are investigated. Studies of the heating and acceleration effects of the turbulence on the background wind are critically surveyed. Finally, open questions concerning the origin, nature and evolution of the fluctuations are listed, and perspectives for future research are outlined. The book is intended for graduate students and researchers in the field as well as scientists and professionals interested in space plasma physics and/or MHD turbulence.

In May 1998, 100 scientists from 20 different countries met at the Max-Planck-Institut fur Aeronomie to communicate their latest results and ideas in astrophysical and space plasma, as a follow-up to previous similar meetings which were held in Varenna, Abastumai, Potsdam, Toki and Guaruja. The main papers emerging from this meeting are collected in this volume. They deal with fundamental plasma phenomena, particle and radiation processes in astrophysics and space physics as the origin of magnetic activity, the basic mechanisms of particle acceleration and plasma heating common to plasma in galaxies and at the sun as well as in planetary magnetospheres. Observational results from YOHKOH, SOHO and other missions are presented. Using these, the basic physical processes leading to coronal heating and solar/stellar wind acceleration are discussed. Other topics are the microphysics of shock waves and transport phenomena in collisionless plasmas and the physics of thin plasma boundaries. The volume also treats the ionic composition of plasma and dust in the Universe and their observability in the solar system.A CD-ROM is attached which adds a multimedia component, illuminating results of observations, theory and simulations. Everyone interested in astrophysical plasmas, its radiation and charged particle aspects, and advanced or even beginning students should find references to nearly all modern aspects of plasma astrophysics and space physics as well as an overview of current research results in 2000.
Multi-Scale Physics in Coronal Heating and Solar Wind Acceleration
From the Sun into the Inner Heliosphere
Inbunden, Engelska, 2013

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This volume explores the cross-linkages between the kinetic processes and macroscopic phenomena in the solar atmosphere, which are at the heart of our current understanding of the heating of the closed and open corona and the acceleration of the solar wind. The focus lies on novel data, on theoretical models that have observable consequences through remote sensing, and on near-solar and inner-heliosphere observations, such as anticipated by the upcoming Solar Orbiter and Solar Probe missions, which are currently developed by the international community. This volume is aimed at students and researchers active in solar physics and space science. Previously published in Space Science Reviews journal, Vol. 172, Nos. 1-4, 2012.

Physics of the Inner Heliosphere gives for the first time a comprehensive and complete summary of our knowledge of the inner solar system. Using data collected over more than 11 years by the HELIOS twin solar probes, one of the most successful ventures in unmanned space exploration, the authors have compiled 10 extensive reviews of the physical processes of the inner heliosphere and their connections to the solar atmosphere. Researchers and advanced students in space and plasma physics, astronomy, and solar physics will be surprised to see just how closely the heliosphere is tied to the sun and how sensitively it depends on our star. The four chapters of Volume I of the work deal with large-scale phenomena: - observations of the solar corona - the structure of the interplanetary medium - the interplanetary magnetic field - interplanetary dust.

Physics of the Inner Heliosphere gives for the first time a comprehensive and complete summary of our knowledge of the inner solar system. Using data collected over more than 11 years by the HELIOS twin solar probes, one of the most successful ventures in unmanned space exploration, the authors have compiled six extensive reviews of the physical processes of the inner heliosphere and their relation to the solar atmosphere. Researchers and advanced students in space and plasma physics, astronomy, and solar physics will be surprised to see just how closely the heliosphere is tied to, and how sensitively it depends on, the sun. Volume 2 deals with particles, waves, and turbulence, with chapters on: - magnetic clouds - interplanetary clouds - the solar wind plasma and MHD turbulence - waves and instabilities - energetic particles in the inner solar system

Die magnetisch aktive Sonne steht im Zentrum unseres Sonnensystems. Aus ihrer Korona strömt der Sonnenwind stetig in alle Richtungen und formt eine großräumige magnetisierte Plasmahülle um unser Zentralgestirn: die Heliosphäre. Zusammen mit der aus dem Interstellaren Medium eindringenden kosmischen Partikelstrahlung prägt der Sonnenwind die Entwicklung des Weltraumwetters im Interplanetaren Raum sowie in den Magnetosphären und Ionosphären der Planeten. Wie entstehen Kometenschweife und Polarlichter? Welchen Einfluss hat der Sonnenwind auf das Leben im Erdsystem?Unterstützt durch faszinierende Abbildungen astronomischer Himmelsobjekte, durch erklärende Grafiken, wissenschaftliche Originaldaten sowie durch die Verknüpfungshinweise zu Videosequenzen werden die zugrundeliegenden physikalischen Prozesse und neuesten Erkenntnisse didaktisch aufbereitet und mit wenigen mathematischen Herleitungen anschaulich erläutert. Dieses Sachbuch wendet sich allgemein an die gebildete Öffentlichkeit, an Amateurastronomen aber auch an junge Studierende, die sich einen umfassenden Überblick über die generelle Bedeutung magnetischer Vorgänge sowie ein tieferes Verständnis der Prozesse in den Weltraumplasmen unseres Sonnensystems verschaffen möchten.

This book describes a great variety of significant space plasma processes and the eminent influence that in particular magnetic processes have on the formation, structure and development of objects in our solar system. Supported by vivid graphics, real shots and links to video sequences, all these processes are, while being didactically prepared, explained thoroughly with few mathematical derivations. The book is written mainly for students, but also for amateurs or scientists from various fields interested in space science. It appeals to those who may want to gain a comprehensive overview of the far-reaching impacts of magnetic fields, on many things in our solar system, or beyond in extrasolar planetary systems and stars in the distant universe.The topics discussed here, with emphasis on magnetism, comprise the structure and dynamics of the solar system and its objects, the solar interior and atmosphere, the time-variable solar activity, the solar wind, processes in the heliosphere and planetary magnetospheres, as well as space weather. Scientific instruments, experiments and measurement methods are presented, with the help of which solar and plasma physicists, astrophysicists and planetary scientists can today gain their deep and fascinating insights. Theoretical and numerical results are interpreted and recent observations are explained, which were made by modern telescopes on Earth and obtained by satellites in space, through either optical remote-sensing and or in-situ plasma measurements.
