An overview of current knowledge and future research directions in magnetospheric physicsIn the six decades since the term 'magnetosphere' was first introduced, much has been theorized and discovered about the magnetized space surrounding each of the bodies in our solar system. Each magnetosphere is unique yet behaves according to universal physical processes.Magnetospheres in the Solar System brings together contributions from experimentalists, theoreticians, and numerical modelers to present an overview of diverse magnetospheres, from the mini-magnetospheres of Mercury to the giant planetary magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn.Volume highlights include: Concise history of magnetospheres, basic principles, and equationsOverview of the fundamental processes that govern magnetospheric physicsTools and techniques used to investigate magnetospheric processesSpecial focus on Earth’s magnetosphere and its dynamicsCoverage of planetary magnetic fields and magnetospheres throughout the solar systemIdentification of future research directions in magnetospheric physicsThe American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.Find out more about the Space Physics and Aeronomy collection in this Q&A with the Editors in Chief
